Cranium is formed by which process?
A. Endochondral ossification
B. Intramembranous ossification
C. Mesenchymal ossification
D. Chondrocyte ossification
B. Intramembranous ossification
Embryogenesis = endochondral (axial & appendicular)
This forms a primary center of ossification resulting in radial bone growth.
A. Diaphysis
B. Epiphysis
C. Metaphysis
D. All of the above
A. Diaphysis
Secondary = epiphysis
This refers to localized disruption of the migration and condensation of mesenchyme
A. Dysostosis
B. Dysplasia
C. Hyperplasia
C. Epistosis
A. Dysostosis
Dysplasia = global disorganization of bone/cartilage

A. Brachydactyly
B. Achondroplasia
C. Osteogenesis imperfecta
D. Thanatophoric dysplasia
A. Brachydactyly
Which of the following conditions is the most common skeletal dysplasia and a major cause of dwarfism?
A. Hypochondroplasia
B. Achondroplasia
C. Osteogenesis imperfecta
D. Thanatophoric dysplasia
B. Achondroplasia
Thanatophoric dysplasia = most common lethal form of dwarfism
Which of the following is the most common inherited disorder of connective tissue and is also called as brittle bone disease?
A. Osteopetrosis
B. Achondrogenesis
C. Osteogenesis imperfecta
D. Osteoporosis
C. Osteogenesis imperfecta
Which of the following conditions is Albers-Schonberg disease mostly associated?
A. Achondrogenesis
B. Osteogenesis

A. HOXD13
B. FGFR3
C. CA2
D. LRP5
B. FGFR3
HOXD13 = brachydactyly CA2 = osteopetrosis SOX9 = osteoporosis-pseudoglioma
It refers to decreased bone mass which increases the risk of fracture
A. Osteopenia
B. Osteopetrosis
C. Osteoporosis
D. Osteogenesis

D. Postmenopausal
D. Postmenopausal
Primary:
>Idiopathic
>Postmenopausal
>Senile
This refers to impaired mineralization of bone matrix in adults.
A. Osteomalacia
B. Rickets
C. Osteoporosis
D. Hyperparathyroidism
A. Osteomalacia
All of the following are hallmark of severe hyperparathyroidism EXCEPT:
A. Increased bone cell activity
B. Peritrabecular fibrosis
C. Cystic brown tumors
D. None of the options
D. None of the options
severe hyperparathyroidism = osteitis fibrosa cystica / Von Recklinghausen
