(86 cards)
1
Q
bone anatomy
A
osteon made up of osteocytes surrounding Haversian canal
2
Q
chars. of intramembranous ossification
A
- flat bones
- no growth plates
- susceptible to fibrous osteodystrophy
- not affected by chondrodysplasia
- ossification center begins in the fibrous CT membrane
- osteoid is secreted into the fibrous membrane
- forms woven bone and periosteum
- final layer of compact bone
3
Q
chars. of endochondral ossification
A
- long bones (arms, legs, ribs)
- requires growth plates
- predominantly increases length (not width)
- hyaline cartilage –> 1ary ossification center + periosteum –> 2ary ossification center –> medullary cavity –> compact bone, periosteum, spongy bone
4
Q
physeal plate
A
where 2 ossification centers meet each other
5
Q
zone of proliferation
A
chondrocytes proliferating
6
Q
zone of hypertrophy
A
where chondrocytes get larger
7

25
Craniomandibular osteopathy
- proliferation of bony tissue around jaw, mandible, and TMJ
- primarily in Westies and Scotties
- autosomal recessive
- starts at 3-7mo, stops at 11-13mo
26
Osteogenesis imperfecta
- defect in matrix synthesis (ie. type I collagen)
- char. by excessive bone fragility --> fractures
- usually short lifespan
- without effective collagen synthesis, can't get effective osteogenesis
27
Osteopetrosis
- failure of bone remodeling
- increased bone density
- has "bone in bone" appearance
28
Chondrosyplasia
- composed of multiple syndromes
- achondroplasia (failure to generate cartilage)
- disproportionate dwarfism
- affects bones with growth plates the most
29
Osteoporosis
- bone loss - resorption > formation
- disuse, malnutrition, corticosteroids, etc.
- susceptible to pathologic fracture
- osteoclast activity exceeds osteoblast activity
- a concern in older humans
30
osteopenia
decreased numbers of thin trebeculae
| -usually progresses to osteoporosis
31
scurvy***
- only in species lacking L-gulonolactone oxidase
- lack of vit. C--> dec. lysine and proline hydroxylation in collagen --> impaired collagen synthesis --> weakened vessel walls and physeal cartilage deformity --> periarticular hemorrhage and osteochodrodysplasia
32
Fibrous osteodystrophy
Primary or secondary hyperparathyroidism:
- primary: caused by functional parathyroid adenomas or parathyroid hyperplasia
- secondary: Ca:P imbalance in feed (too much P or too little Ca), or kidney disease
33
Rickets
- defect in endochondral ossification
- only in young animals (b/c problem at growth plates)
- def. in Vit. D or phosphorus
34
Hypertrophic osteopathy
- due primarily to intrathoracic space occupying mass
- periosteal proliferation
- joints NOT involved**
- etiology unclear
35
Hypertrophic OsteoDystrophy (metaphyseal osteopathy)
- "Double physeal line"
- young dogs
- acute inflammation in the primary spongiosa
- necrosis of osteoblasts
- usually self-limiting
36
Eosinophilic Panosteitis
- happens around nutrient foramen
| - patchy increased radiodensity in marrow cavity
37
Legg-Perthes Disease
- avascular necrosis of the femoral head
- small breed dogs
- occurs prior to physeal closure (4-11mo)
38
Osteomyelitis***
- SERIOUS condition
- causes: sx, penetrating wound, fracture, hematogenous spread
- tx difficult
- can be acute or chronic
- can be caused by many species of bacteria
- commonly centered around physes because bacteria get caught in blood supply here**
- main causes: Bordetella bronchiseptica and/or Pasteurella multocida**

- grow with skeleton
- tend to see around ribs and costochondral jxs
- don't typically cause problems but if occurs in spinal cord can cause compressive damage
51
multilobular tumor of bone
forms stripey pattern on flat bone
52
2 ways synovium reacts to injury
1) hypertrophy (very common)
2) pannus (granulation tissue on articular surface)
- can damage underlying cartilage**
- can progress to ankylosis (pathologic fusion of joint)
53
arthrodesis*
ELECTIVE fusion of the joint
54
cartilage has poor blood supply and limited regenerative capacity
:)
55
Fibrillation
- forms vertical clefts in cartilage
- dull, yellow-brown cartilage
- can be reversible
56
Eburnation
polishing of exposed subchondral (below the cartilage) bone
| -bone effectively taking place of cartilage
57
Osteophytosis
osteophytes form around unstable joint such as with arthritis
58
"joint mice"
calcified bony piece of tissue that is free floating in the joint
59
Inflammatory Arthritis
Caused by acute (penetrating wound, septicemia) or Chronic (immune-mediated, virus, untreated acute arthritis) arthritis
-pus in joint common CS
60
Sharpei fever
immune-mediated inflammatory arthritis in Sharpeis.
- cyclic high fever, inflammatory arthritis, then goes away
- most develop amyloidosis from repeated arthrosis
61
Osteoarthritis
- DJD
- decreased proteoglycan synthesis
- inc. metalloenzyme synthesis degrades proteoglycans
- typically an aging lesion
- lesions: fibrillation, cartilage erosion, osteophytosis, eburnation, synovial hyperplasia
62
Osteochondritis Dissecans (OCD)
- osteochondrosis: area of damage to the cartilage; tends to be thicker and has problems in underlying blood supply
- OCD when flap separates from underlying bone (joint mouse when brakes off)
- more common in horse, dog, pig
- usually in younger animals
63
most common neoplasm of joints*
synovial cell sarcoma
| -looks similar to osteosarc, but involves joint
64
disc structure
outer annulus fibrosis
| inner nucleus pulposus
65
IVDD
- annulus fibrosis cracks, tears, or can rupture
- releases nucleus pulposus
- Type I: sudden; more common in chondrodystrophic breeds
- Type II: gradual (tends to be in larger dogs)
- CS: ataxia, painful, placing and CP deficits, dec. motors
66
Wobblers
- stenosis (narrowing) of vertebral column
- rule-out for IVDD
- tends to be in younger animals
- more common in horses, large breed dogs
- tends to be dynamic (ie. gets worse or better with certain motion)
67
Dural ossification
- "ossifying pachymeningitis" - inflamm. of the dura mater
- generally incidental
- few have neuro signs
68
Hip Dysplasia
- degenerative, non-inflammatory
- generally large-breed dogs
- deformation of the joint: subluxation of the femoral head
- osteophytes and fibrous CT form. to stabilize joint
- genetic component
69
Elbow Dysplasia
- degenerative, non-inflamm.

-rapid activity
```
72
2 distributions of muscle injuries***
focal, multifocal
73
2 timelines of m. injuries***
monophasic (all m. stages in the same state of damage/repair)
polyphasic (ie. chronic toxin exposure)
74
heart attack (or other vascular injury) would be classified as:***
focal, monophasic
75
Responses to injury

```
77
m. damage: circulation
-if lot of weight put on muscle such as in Downer cattle or equine anesthesia, will compress blood vessels --> myonecrosis
78
m. damage: myositis
Bacterial:
-typically clostridium
-abscesses
Parasitic:
-Toxoplasma, Trichinella (pigs), Sarcocystis (horses)
Autoimmune:
-systemic lupus erythematosus, polymyositis, purpura hemorrhagica, etc.

80
chars. of Equine Rhabdomyolysis

- polysaccharide storage myopathy
- recurrent exertional rhabdomylolysis (a breakdown of muscle tissue that releases a damaging protein into the blood)
81
spayleg
- congenital myopathy in pigs
| - back leg muscles aren't strong enough to support their weight so they sink down and splay out
82
Exertional Myopathies
- capture myopathy: usually lethal and stress has been identified as the single most determining factor, exacerbated by muscle exertion
- disuse (ie. cast)
83
Nutritional Myopathies
- malnutrition --> atrophy
| - vit. E/selenium deficiency --> white m. disease
84
m. damage: toxins

85
m. damage: neoplasia
Rhabdomyoma (benign)
| Rhabdomyosarcoma (malignant)
86
m. damage: denervation
- brachial plexus avulsion --> will get severe m. atrophy, phantom itches
- laryngeal hemiplegia
