ch 14 Bone Pathology Flashcards
(297 cards)
Most common type of inherited bone disorder
Osteogenesis imperfect
Osteogenesis imperfecta is an impairment of what tissue maturation
type I collagen
What parts of the body are affected by OI
bone Dentin
Sclera Ligaments Skin
What is the bone character in O.I.
thin cortex, fine trabeculations, diffuse osteoporosis
How will bone heal in O.I.
heal, but with abundant callus
What are the radiographic hallmarks of O.I.
osteopenia Bowing
Angulation/deformed long bones Multiple fractures
Wormian skull bones
What are wormian bones
10 or more sutural bones that are 6X4mm in diameter or larger and mosaic patterned, but not specific to O.I.
O.I. can appear dentally identical to what other disorder
Dentinogenesis imperfect
How will the dentition look in both Osteogenesis Imperfecta and Dentinogenesis Imperfecta
blue to brown opalescent teeth
What should you call teeth that have the characteristic brown or blue opalescence? Should it be D.I. or O.I outright
No, just opalescent teeth until determined if only D.I.
What is the characteristic malocclusion in O.I. and why
1.) Class III due to maxillary hypoplasia
What is the most common, mildest form of O.I.
Type I
What is the most severe form of O.I.
Type II
Other physical characteristics of O.I.
Blue sclera
Hypoacusis(hearing loss)
Long bone & spine deformaties Joint hyperextensibility
Most severe form of O.I. noted in patients beyond
the perinatal period and has moderately severe to severe bone fragility
Type III
Type III O.I. patients die from cardiopulmonary complications from what
kyphoscoliosis = abnormal spin curvature in coronal and sagittal plane
O.I. type associated with mild to moderate bone fragility
Type IV
What happens to bone throughout life in O.I.
Cortical bone is attenuated
Reduced bone matrix production
Bone immature throughout life
Woven bone never transforms to lamellar
What is the primary goal of O.I. treatment
No cure, goal to improve symptoms (bisphosphonates later in life)
rare hereditary skeletal disorder characterized by marked increase in bone density
Osteopetrosis
Osteopetrosis cause
defect in osteoclast function
What causes the thickening of cortical bone and sclerosis of cancellous bone
defective osteoclast function + continued osteoblast function + endochondral bone formation
2 types of osteopetrosis
Infantile/Malignant Adult/Benign
Character of Infantile/Malignant Osteopetrosis
diffusely sclerotic skeleton Marrow failure
Frequent fracture (accusations of child abuse)
Cranial nerve compression (blind/deaf/facial paralysis)
