epiphysis
A
ends of bone
made of spongy
articular cartilage covers

osteomyelitis (bone infection)
fat emboli
22
Q
paget’s disease (osteitis deformans)
A
localized abnormal and excessive bone remodeling (bone formation and resorption) which eventually enlarges and softens the affected bone
23
Q
which areas do paget’s disease affect most
A
vertebrae, skull, sacrum, sternum, pelvis
24
Q
etiology of paget’s disease
A
unknown (may follow inflamation, virus bone tumors, autoimmune dysfunction)
25
patho of paget's
excessive resorption of spongy bone
fibrous tissue replace bone marrow
abnormal new bone forms
26
mani of paget's
bone deformity (barrel chest, bowing of legs, kyphosis)
bone pain
fractures
27
managemnt of paget's
pain managemnt
prevention of deformity/fracture and loss of function
drugs to slow bone resorption
28
gout
a disorder that disrupts the body's control of uric acid production or excretion
may follow traumatic injury or joint strain
29
etiology of gout
excessive serum uric acid (lack of excretion or excessive production
30
what causes increased production of uric acid
increased rate of purines synthesis
purines break down to uric acid
increased production of uric acid
31
what causes decreased excretion of uric acid
renal failure- urate crystals
| form and deposit in kidneys
32
patho of gout
when uric acid reaches a certain concentration it crystalizes
urate crystals cause joint inflammation and renal stones
33
mani of gout
increased serum uric acid (urate)
| hot, red, tender joint (usually periphreal)
34
management of gout
meds to help excrete uric acid
ice on area
no weight bearing
low purine (protein) diet and increased fluids
35
osteomyelitis
bacterial, fungal, parasitic or viral bone infection
36
etiology of osteomyelitis
open bone form surgery, trauma
| blood borne from other sites of infection
37
patho of osteomyelitis
pathogen in bone causes inflammatory response
abscesses form (lifts periosteum off underlying bone)
pressure from abscess causes decreased blood supply to bone -- necrosis
osteoblasts form new bone
38
mani of osteomyelitis
acute: fever, chills, bone pain, weightloss
chronic: if inadequate antibiotics, drug resistant bcteria
39
management of osteomyetlitis
antibotics
| irrigation and drainage
40
why is osteomyeletitis hard to cure
bone has multiple microscopic channels
| impermeable to blood cells so there is decreased phagocytosis
41
osteoporosis
reduced bone density
42
incidence of osteoporosis
most common metabolic bone disease
incidence increases with age
most common in white females
43
etiology of osteoporosis
decreased estrogen after menopause
decreased dietary calcium and VD
increased caffeine, nicotine, alcohol (loss of ca from bone)
renal failure
44
why is decreased estrogen an etiology of osteoporosis
estrogen normally inhibits bone resorption
45
why is renal failure an etiology of osteoporosis
nephrons are unable to remove excess PO4 causes:
increased PO4 -- binds to ca
decreased ca stimulates increased parathyroid hormone
pth overstimulates osteoclasts to remodel (loss of Ca from bone)
46
patho of osteoporosis
increased rate of resorption of osteoclasts
decreases rate of bone formation by osteoblasts
net decrease in bone density
47
mani of osteoporosis
bone pain
bone deformity (kyphoscololiosis-- hunch back)
fractures
loss of height
48
management of osteoporosis
weight bearing exercises
estrogen
dietary Ca and v. D
prevention is best treatment
49
degenerative joint disease (osteoarthritis)
degeneration and loss of articular surfaces in synovial joints
50
etiology of osteoarthritis
mechanical joint stress
trauma
age
wear and tear
51
patho of osteoarthritis
loss of articular cartilage
bone becomes dense and hard
bone spurs form grow outward from bone
52
mani of osteoarthritis
joint pain and stiffness
swelling
decreased ROM in joint
deformity
53
managemtn of osteoarthritis
```
weight loss
NSAID's
ROM exercises
cain/ crutches to decrease weight bearing
joint replacement surgery
```
54
osteogenic sarcoma
1/3 bone tumors
large, destructive, malignant bone tumor found in the metaphyses of long bones
can be rapidly fatal with lung metastasis
55
incidence of osteogenic sarcoma
adolescent (oven overlooked as sports injury)
56
patho of osteogenic sarcoma
bonemarrow- moth eaten pattern
anaplastic cells- abnormal cells
tumor destroys bone
tumor breaks through periosteum and can form soft tissue mass
57
mani of osteogenic sarcoma
bone pain worse at night
| increases alkaline phosphatase (enzyme produced by osteoblasts)
58
management of osteogenic sarcoma
cemo, radiation
amputation
combination therapy
59
scoliosis
a s or c curve to entire spine when which the vertebrae twist
60
etiology of scoliosis
```
congenital skeletal disorders
neuromusclular disease
trauma
rickets
idioppathic
```
61
incidence of scoliosis
can occur between ages 4-14 during growth spurts, common in girls
62
patho of scoliosis
muscles, ligaments and soft tissues become shortened (concave side)
progressive deformities of vertebral column and limbs develop
curve increases most rapidly during periods of skeletal growth
63
mani of scoliosis
spinal curvature
prominance of shoulder and hip
advanced can lead to restricted expansion of lungs and pressure on heart eventually leading to heart failure
64
managemet of scoliosis
braces
| surgery if curvature is greater than 40 degrees
65
osteomalacia/rickets
mineral calcification and deposition in mature compact and spongy bone doesn not occure; results in soft bones
66
osteomalacia
refers to adult bones
67
rickets
growing bones of children
68
etiology of osteomalacia/rickets
deficiency of VD, dietary and malabsorptive
69
patho of o/e
decreased vd- decreased ca
decreased ca- PTH activation
loss of ca and po4 from bones
mineralizatio of bone decreased
70
clinical mani of o/e
skeletal pain and tenderness
bone deformities
pathological fractures
71
treatment of O/E
vd and ca supplements
72
congenital hip dysplasia
abnormal development of proximal femur or acetablum or both
73
etiology of congenital hip dysplasia
family, breech presentation
74
patho of congential hip dysplasia
dysplasio- contact but easily dislocated
subluxation- contact but not well seated
dislocation- no contact
75
clinical mani of congenital hip dysplasia
pain
leg lenght
asymmetry of gluteal/thigh folds
76
treatment for congenital hip dysplasia
braces
casts
surgery
77
talipes equinovarus (club foot)
deformity of the foot
78
etiology of talipes equinovarus
abnormal embryonic development of foot
79
patho of talipes equinovarus
foot normally goes through stage of flection and inversion
| arrested development results in rigid defority
80
mani of talipes equinovarus
feet in position of flexion and inverion
81
treatment of talpies equinovarus
surgery to release sight structures
| shoes to maintain correct position
82
dislocation
the temp displacemnt of the entire articular surface of two bones
83
subluxation
partial loss of articulation
