Bone Dev and Ped injuries Flashcards
EO
Hyaline cartilage is model
Perichonrium surrounds, OB infilatrate and convert to P
Cartilage in center of D disintegrates- OB forms 1OC towards ends of bone
HC in epiphyses inc length, OB form 2OC, E converted to spongy bone
requires contact between joints
Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip (DDH) patho
Abnormal contact of femoral head w acetabulum
Fem head grows faster than acetabulum
Hip flexion inc eccentric contact
DDH RF
Female
Breech presentation (head down)
Genetics/FH
Swaddling
Treat DDH
Maintain contact w femoral head/acetabulum
After 2 years, prob cant treat
Bone age
use ossification centers
Areas of weakness
Physis- growth plate, 1OC
Epiphysis- 2OC, lengthening
Apophysis- attachment site of tendons, 2OC, contour
Highest risk of injury during rapid growth (Puberty(
Pediatric Bone
Ligament>bone (much more bone injuries)
P is osteogenic & met active
thicker/stronger
Greenstick frac
Plastic deform
Intact periosteum, only one side fracture
Bend prior to fracture
Buckle (torus)- compression via longitudinal force
Bowing- microscopic fractures dissipate impact
Physis areas
Germinal- resting state, abundant ECM
Proliferative- active growth center for length, abundant ECM
Hypertrophic- center of chondrocyte diff, little ECM, weakest area
Endochondral cal- chondro death and matrix calcification
Strongest area
Salter harris classification of physis injuries
1S- straight across (physis) 2A- above (physis/meta) 3L- lower (physis/epi) 4T- through (Phy/epi/meta) 5ER- Erasure- crush injury
Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysis (SCFE)
Type 1- inf/post slippage of proximal femoral epi
Obese, around 11-14
Chronic most common
Acute can occur w fall/trauma
Dull, nonradiating groin/thigh/knee pain
Dec internal rotation
SH Type 2
Most common- meta/phy
Rarely causes bone growth arrest
SH Type 3
Intraarticualr frac- phys/epi
Possible bone growth arrest
Emergent surgical reduction bc of fragment
SH Type 4
Intraarticular frac- E/P/M
Possible bone growth arrest
Emergent surgical correction
SH Type 5
Diff to dx
Bone growth arrest
Dx made after growth arrest
