Bone Pathology Part 1 Flashcards
Where is bone marrow is located at?
Medullary Cavity
Periosteum -> ______ bone
Endostetum -> ______ bone
Periosteum -> outside the bone
Endostetum -> inside the bone
Term referred as composed of extracellular matrix containing
primarily glycoproteins and collagen fibers
Osteoid
Osteoid undergoes mineralization, by deposition of ______, to form bone
Calcium hydroapatite (CHAP) crystals
Bone matrix contain growth factors that help in what 3 bone settings?
1) Bone development
2) Bone modeling
3) Bone remodeling
What 4 types of cellular elements in bone?
1) Osteoblasts
2) Osteocytes
3) Lining cells (inactive osteoblasts)
4) Osteoclasts
What are 2 types of bone based on maturity and their pattern?
1) Woven bone -> Immature bone
* -Collagen fibers in woven bone are in crisscross (woven) pattern microscopically.
2) Lamellar bone -> Mature bone.
* -Collagen fibers are in a parallel pattern.
What are 2 types of bone growth and where does it occur?
1) Intramembranous ossification
- Occurs within “membranes” of primitive mesenchymal tissue
- Flat bones of the skull
2) Endochondral ossification
- Occurs in majority of bones of theskeleton.
- Bone develops from hyaline cartilage and replaced by osseous tissue in the ossification centers
- Limbs, vertebral column, pelvis, base of skull
Term referred to membranous appositional growth is normal but interstitial growth of cartilage is abnormal leading to premature closure of growth plates, which decreases length of long bones
Chondrodysplasia
Chondrodysplasia is seen in what animals?
- Beef breeds: Angus, Hereford
- Dexter bulldog (congenital lethal chondrodysplasia)
- Chondrodystrophic dog breeds (localized chondrodysplasias)
- Dachshund, pug, basset hound, bulldogs, boxers
What is the diagnosis?
Congenital Lethal Chondrodysplasia (Dexter Bulldog)
Localized skeletal dysplasia or degenerative joint disease affecting axial skeleton is called what Growth and Developmental Abnormality?
Cervico-vertebral stenotic myelopathy (Wobbler’s Syndrome):
The syndrome results in ____ or _____ compression of the cervical spinal cord (SC) by abnormal cervical vertebrae.
Dynamic or Static
Dynamic -> Neck is flexed
Static -> Doesn’t matter position of the neck
What is the diagnosis?
Cervico-vertebral stenotic myelopathy (Wobbler’s Syndrome):
What is Osteopetrosis?
- Inherited disease caused by osteoclast failure to reabsorb the primary spongiosa
- This failure results in an increased bone density and lack of medullary (bone marrow) spaces.
What is this Growth and Developmental
Abnormality called?
Osteopetrosis
Osteopetrosis often results to? (2 things)
1) Osteosclerosis (increased bone density)
2) Aplastic anemia
What is Congenital cortical hyperostosis of pigs?
Limbs (primarily forelimbs) look swollen from excessive deposition of radiating trabeculae on periostal surface and blocking local lymphatic circulation
