how can the condition seen in the image can be contrasted with GH deficiency dwarfism?
GH deficiency (dwarfism) = proportionally shortened limbs
chronic osteomyelitis can lead to Brodie abscess, which is an _____
chronic osteomyelitis can lead to Brodie abscess, which is an intracortical abscess (abscess within the bone)
the condition seen in the image can cause ___ anemia; explain how
the condition seen in the image can cause myelophthisic anemia
metastasis to bone → caseating granulomas replacing normal bone marrow → inadequate cell formation
osteomyelitis can lead to sequestrum, which is progressive ____ leading to segmental ____ surrounded by viable new bone (____)
osteomyelitis can lead to sequestrum, which is progressive ischemia leading to segmental bony necrosis surrounded by viable new bone (involucrum)
$$ what is a complication of the condition seen in the image? $$
chondrosarcoma
$$ describe the invasiveness of the condition seen in the image $$
LOCALLY invasive
the condition seen in the image is caused by dysfunction in _____
how does this lead to the condition?
the condition seen in the image is caused by dysfunction in carbonic anhydrase
without acidic environment → osteoclastic activity is impaired → primary spongiosa layer which is normally broken down by osteoclasts is retained → narrowed medullary cavity → no hematopoiesis → pancytopenia
in the condition seen in the image, there is progressive joint destruction due to formation of a ____
explain this
in the condition seen in the image, there is progressive joint destruction due to formation of a pannus
pannus = synovial cell hyperplasia, organizing fibrin, CD4 T cells which form lymphoid aggregates, neutrophils (b/c acute on chronic inflammation), granulation tissue (col. III) → col. 1

osteomyelitis begins in ___ because ____ terminate int he venous sinusoids and eventually leads to the formation of ____
osteomyelitis begins in the metaphysis because nutrient arteries terminate in the venous sinusoids and eventually leads to the formation of abscesses within medulla & under periosteum and bone necrosis
