Periosteum

A

White double layer membrane surrounding the bone, outside made of irregular CT, inside made of osreogenic stem cells

15
Q

Endosteum

A

Delicate connective tissue layer that lines the inside of the bone. Contains osteogenic stem cells.

Q

Nutrient foramen

A

Opening in the bone which the blood supply and nerves pass through

17
Q

Sharpey’s fibers

A

Perforating fibers that anchor the periosteum to the bone and provide anchor points for ligaments and tendons.

18
Q

Red marrow cavities

A

Found in spongy bone and is where hematopoiesis takes place–mostly in hip sternum,and heads of femur and humerus.

19
Q

Bone markings

20
Q

21
Q

Osteogenic cells

A

Mitotic stem cells, located in periosteum and endosteum.

22
Q

Osteoblasts

A

Matrix synthesizing cell responsible for bone growth. Trigger the deposit of calcium salts in the organic matrix.
Osteocytes develop from osteoblasts.

23
Q

Osteocyte

A

Mature bone cell that monitors and maintains the bone matrix-make up most of the cell population and occupy the lacuna.
Maintain protein and mineral content of the matrix
Involved in repair of damaged bones

24
Q

Osteoclast

A

Bone reabsorbing cells. Use enzymes to break down bone and release stored minerals (osteolysis)
Large with 50+ nuclei
Derive from the cells that produce monocytes and macrophages, not from osteogenic stem cells

25
Q

Components of compact bone

A

Osteon
Lamella
Canals & Canaliculi

26
Q

Osteon

A

Tiny weight baring pillars, run parallel to the long across of the bone

27
Q

Lamella

A

Each flat layer of the osteon, wrapped around the center like a tree trunk. Collagen fibers rin diagonally in opposite directions in each layer.

28
Q

Canals

A

Central canals: Run through the core of each osteon

Perforating (Vilkmann’s) canals: Run from periosteum to medullary cavity.

29
Q

Lamellae

A

Interstitial lamella: Incomplete lamella between osteons
Circumferential lamella: wrap around ostoens, under periosteum.
Hard matrix between cells

30
Q

Bone composition

A

Organic: Bone cells and ground substances such as collagen
Inorganic: mineral salts, largely clacium phosphates.

31
Q

2 types of bone formation

A

endochondal ossification:

Intermembranous ossification

32
Q

7 stages of endochondal ossificstion

A
  1. Matrix starts to form as chondrocytes enlarge in the center
  2. Blood vessels grow around the edges of the cartilage and perichondrium cells convert to osteoblasts
  3. Blood vessels penetrate, fibroblasts migrate in and turn to osteoblasts, primary ossification center forms spongy bone.
  4. Remodeling creates a medullary cavity, length and diameter increase
  5. Capillarity and osteoblasts migrate into epiphyses and form secondary ossification center
  6. Epiphyseal plate forms and separates the diaphysis and epiphysis.
  7. Epiphyseal closure occurs at puberty
33
Q

Intermembranous ossification

A
  1. Mesenchymal cells cluster together, differentiate into osteoblasts and begins to form bone matrix
  2. Ossification proceeds and some osteoblasts are trapped and differentiate into osteocytes.
  3. Blood vessels move in and accelerate growth, they become trapped in the matrix.
  4. Woven bone and periosteum forms with blood vessels throughout
  5. Osteons develop and surface tissue becomes periosteum.
34
Q

Growth from epiphyeal plate

A
  1. Proliferation zone: Mitosis of cartilage cells
  2. Hypertrophic Zone: Older cartilage cells enlarge.
  3. Calcification; Matrix calcifies, cartilage cells die, matrix begins deteriorating & blood vessels invade.
  4. Ossification zone: new bone forms
35
Q

Hormonal Controls for bone remodeling

A

Calcitonin: Calcium in to bone

Parathyroid hormone: Calcium out

36
Q

Common types of fractures

A

Transverse: Break of a bone shaft across its long axis
Displaced/non-displaced: new abnormal bone arrangements/retain the normal alignment
Compression: Vertebrae subjected to extreme stress
Spiral: Produced by twisting stress that spreads along the length of the bone
Epiphyseal: Break that occurs where the cartilage is ossifying
Comminuted: Shatter affected area into a multitude of bony fragments
Greenstick: One side of the shaft is broken and the other is bent (common in children)
Colles: Distal portion of the radius, common in breaking a fall
Pott’s: Occurs in the ankle and affects multiple bones

37
Q

4 Stages for healing a fracture

A
  1. Hemotoma forms
  2. Fibrocartilaginous callus forms
  3. Bony callus forms
