Q

What are the types of joints?

A

Fibrous
Cartilaginous -united by hyaline cartilage or fibrocatilage
Synovial -covered by hyaline and articular capsule surrounding fluid filled cavity

19
Q

Joint injuries most commonly occur in synovial (diarthodial) joints, what are the results?

A

Fibrillation (fraying)

Eburnation “joint mice”

20
Q

What can form due to chronic joint injury?

A

Osteophyte

21
Q

What is villous hypertrophy/hyperplasia

A

Manifestation of chronic joint injury

Villi of hyperplasia extend from the synovial membrane

22
Q

What is a pannus?

A

Fibrovascular (granulation) and histocytic tissue that develops within the synovial membrane at its junction with the periosteum and cartilage margins.

Can spread over the articular surface as a velvety membrane

23
Q

What generic term is used to describe a joint with severe chronic injury?

A

End-stage joint

24
Q

What the appearance of an end-stage joint?

A
Variable degrees of damage to articular cartilage
deformation
osteophyte
Pannus formation
capsular fibrosis
synovial villous hypertrophy
Occasional ankylosis
25
Q

What is ankylosis?

A

Fixation of the joint

26
Q

What is osteochondrosis (dyschondroplasia)?

A

Abnormal growth and maturation of the articular cartilage

27
Q

What is the most common cause of lameness in domestic animals?

A

Osteochondrosis

28
Q

What form of osteochondrosis is characterized by the separation of a piece of articular cartilage form the subchondral bone?

A

Osteochondrosis dissecans (OCD)

29
Q

What is characterized by a lack of conformity between the femoral head and acetabulum?

A

Hip dysplasia

Large breed dogs!

30
Q

What is an early finding to hip dysplasia?

A

Joint laxity (instability)

31
Q

What is a Hansen’s type I intervertebral disk disease?

A

Nucleus pulposa is extruded from the annulus fribrosis

32
Q

What is a Hansen’s type II inververtebral disk disease?

A

Protrusion of the nucleus pulposa into the annulus fibrosis (still within capsule)

33
Q

Osteophyte formation at ventral and lateral margins of vertebral bodies adjacent to vertebral spaces

A

Spondylosis
AKA
Spondylosis defomans
Ankylosing spondylosis

34
Q

What is primary degenerative joint disease?

A

No apparent predisposing cause. Generally observed in older animals

35
Q

What is secondary degenerative joint disease?

A

Associated with underlying abnormality in the joint or its supporting structures which leads to premature degeneration of the articular cartilage (eg hip dysplasia/trauma/inflammation)

36
Q

What is a degenerative diseases in horse affecting the inter-phalangeal joints??

A

Ring bone

Common in horses used in rodeo or polo-> chronic trauma from abrupt stops/turns

37
Q

What are common bacteria in septic arthritis of cattle?

A

Trueperella pyogenes
E.coli (calf)
Histophilus somni
Mycoplasma bovis

38
Q

What are common bacterial isolates from septic arthritis in swine?

A
Trueperella 
Erysipelothrix 
Strep suis 
Haemophilus suis and parasites 
Mycoplasma hyorrhinis 
Micocpalsma hyosynoviae
39
Q

What is a common bacteria isolated from septic arthritis of dogs and humans

A

Borrellia burgdorferi

40
Q

What is caprine arthritis-encephalitis (CAE)?

A

Retrovirus > respiratory and neurological syndrome -> joint lesions are characterized by a lymphocytic hyperplastic synovitis with formation of carpal hygromas

41
Q

What is a hygroma?

A

Chronic lesions that appears as a flattened cystic fluid filled subcutaneous distention over the crainal carpus

42
Q

Non-infectious arthritis etiology? What is the pathogenesis ??

A

Immune -mediated

Persistence of antigen in the synovial membrane of affected joints -> deposition of the immune complexes derived from inflammatory lesions -> erosive and non-erosive forms described

43
Q

Malignant neoplasms of joints arise from _____________

A

Synovial membrane

44
Q

What are the two types of malignant neoplasms of joints?

A
