Bone and Cartilage Pathology II Flashcards
lump on rib, full of hemosiderin
brown tumor
renal osteodystrophy
skeletal changes that occur in chronic renal disease
tubular dysfunction
generalized renal failure
decreased production of secreted factors
metabolic acidosis
overlying skin intact with fx
simple
bone breaks through skin surface
compound
bone fragmented with fx
comminuted
ends of bones are not aligned with fx
displaced
slowly developing fracture that follows period of increased physical activity where bone subject to repeated loads
stress
fx only partially through bones
greenstick
in kids - with soft bones
fx from weak bone with underlying disease
pathologic
osteopenia, osteomalacia, hyperPTH, growth retardation in patient with chronic renal failure
renal osteodystrophy
result of hyperPTH
osteoporosis
brown tumors
osteitis fibrosa cystica
corticosteroid use
can lead to osteonecrosis
avascular necrosis
with dislocation of hip
cut off blood supply via the obturator artery
osteonecrosis
often affects medulla infarcts
cortex - collateral blood flow
fat necrosis - saponification
inflammation of bone and marrow secondary to infection
osteomyelitis
pyogenic osteomyelitis
hematogenous spread
extension from contiguous site
direct implantation - with surgery
majority of pyogenic osteomyelitis
staph aureus
50% cases - no organism isolated
sickle cell osteomyelitis
salmonella
sequestrum
with osteomyelitis infection
-necrosis of dead bones**
involucrum
shell of living tissue (new bone) around sequestran necrotic dead bone in osteomyelitis
brodie abscess
small intraosseous abscess with osteomyelitis
