WEEK 14: metabolic disorders, genetic & dev disorders & infectious diseases, & MSK neophasms Flashcards
What two systems are involved in metabolic disorders?
Endocrine and nervous
Define osteomalacia/adult rickets.
Malacia: softening without loss of matrix
Define osteopenia.
Penia: low bone mass
Define osteopetrosis.
Petrosis: increased density
What two factors is bone strength based on?
Density and quality
What increases during growth and development to enhance bone density and quality?
Bone mineral density
In osteoporosis, muscle pain and trigger points can occur in lower back paravertebral muscles and which muscles?
Rhomboid
Osteomalacia results from deficiency in calcium, vitamin D, and what?
Phosphate
What is the second most common metabolic bone disease that has increased bone resorption and excessive unorganized new bone formation?
Paget disease
Developmental dysplasia of the hip occurs dynamically in utero until when?
First year of life
What signs can be observed in newborns/non-walking children up to 12 months with DDH?
- Ortolani
- Barlow
- Galeazzie (asymmetric)
Physical asymmetries in newborns/non-walking children with DDH include limitation of hip what?
Abduction
In an ambulating child, uncorrected bilateral dysplasia leads to what type of compensated gait?
Trendelenburg (leaning towards weight-bearing side)
In an ambulating child, unilateral dysplasia leads to positive Trendelenburg and flexion contracture on the involved side due to post displacement of hips, resulting in lumbar what?
Lordosis
What is the generalized connective tissue disorder that has skeletal fragility and growth deficiency, also called brittle bone disease?
Osteogenesis imperfecta
True or False: Lower extremities are more involved in osteogenesis imperfecta than upper extremities.
True

Osteomyelitis
What four areas are most affected by osteomyelitis?
- Spine
- Pelvis
- Arms
- Legs
What type of osteomyelitis is a rapidly destructive pyogenic infection often seen in children, older adults, and IV drug abusers?
Acute
What type of infection occurs around the time of surgery and is caused by contaminated instruments?
Perioperative
What type of infection occurs because of a primary infection somewhere else?
Hematogenous
What type of infection occurs secondary to nearby infection?
Contiguous

Spondylodiscitis
Where is the most common site for spinal infection with annulus, nucleus, or vertebral endplate being affected?
Intervertebral disk
