Q

Achondroplasia pathogenesis?

A
  • transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait but many cases arise from spontaneous mutation resulting from:
  1. Defect in the cartilage synthesis at growth plates due to
    gain-of-function mutations in the FGF receptor 3 (FGFR3).
    =
    a receptor with tyrosine kinase activity that transmits intracellular
    signals.
    =
    Signals transmitted by FGFR3 inhibit the proliferation and
    function of growth plate chondrocytes
    =
    , the growth of normal epiphyseal plates is suppressed

Q

the “silent disease?

A

Osteoporosis

22
Q

Symptoms of osteoporosis?

A
  • bone loss without symptoms.
  • Onset occurs with sudden strains, bumps, or fall causes a fracture or a vertebra to collapse.
  • Collapsed vertebrae may be seen in the form of severe back pain, loss of height, or spinal deformities such as kyphosis or stooped posture .
23
Q

difficult condition to diagnose
accurately, since it remains asymptomatic until skeletal
fragility is well advanced. ?

A

Osteoporosis

24
Q

Osteoporosis

The best procedures to accurately estimate the amount of
bone loss, aside from biopsy, are ?

A

specialized radiographic
imaging techniques, such as dual-energy X-ray
absorptiometry (DEXA) and quantitative computed
tomography, which measure bone density.

25
Q

group of rare genetic disorders
characterized by reduced osteoclast-mediated bone
resorption and therefore defective bone
remodelling.

A

OSTEOPETROSIS

26
Q

bones are abnormally
brittle and fracture easily, like a piece of chalk.
?

A

OSTEOPETROSIS

27
Q

There are two different genetic and clinical forms of the

disease\ osteopetrosis ?

A

1- The autosomal recessive form runs a “malignant” course and is fatal in utero, infancy or young adult life as a result of bone marrow obliteration, profound anemia, or other hemopoietic abnormalities.

2- The autosomal dominant form has a more benign course marked by repeated fractures on slight trauma, a near normal life expectancy, and the absence of hematopoietic abnormalities.

28
Q

he long bones of the extremities, vertebrae, pelvic
bones, and base of the skull show a great increase in
the density and thickness of the cortex.
?

A

Osteppetrosis

29
Q

An increase in the number and size of bony
trabeculae, and a marked reduction or obliteration of
the marrow spaces .
?:

A

Osteopetrosis

30
Q

The reduction in the total amount of bone marrow
leads to anemia and extramedullary hemopoiesis,
resulting in enlargement of the spleen, liver, and
lymph nodes.

A

Osteopetrosis

31
Q

Bone overgrowth at the base of the cranium causes
narrowing of the optic foramina and pressure on the
optic nerves, resulting in blindness.

A

Osteopetrosis

32
Q

The bone tissue formed is largely woven bone, and very little
of it is remodeled and replaced by lamellar bone.

A

Osteopetrosis

33
Q

Disorder of bone remodeling resulting excessive bone resorption followed by disorganized bone replacement. ?

A

PAGET DISEASE OF BONE (Osteitis Deformans)

A

A

enlarged bones with lytic and
sclerotic areas. ]

A

RICKETS AND OSTEOMALACIA

44
Q

RICKETS AND OSTEOMALACIA They may result from ?

A

diets deficient in calcium and vitamin
D, but probably more important is limited exposure to
sunlight.

45
Q

Both diseases are characterized by decreased mineralization

of newly formed bone. ?

Q

occur in children prior to closure of epiphyses.

?

A

Rickets

47
Q

Rickets which formation is effected ?

A

Enchondral bone formation is affected leading to skelatal

deformities.

48
Q

Rickets clinically ?

A
  1. Craniotabes and frontal bossing
  2. Pigeon breast deformity
  3. Lumbar lordoses (Spinal curvature)
  4. Bowing of the legs ( Curvature of femur and tibia)
    1. Overgrowth of cartilage or osteoid tissue at the costochondral
      junction, producing the “rachitic rosary
49
Q

impaired mineralization of osteoid matrix resulting in thin fragile bones susceptible to fracture.
?

A

Osteomalacia

50
Q

Clinically present Osteomalacia?

A

bone pain and fractures of vertebra,

hips and wrist.

51
Q

Osteomalacia Radiographs? Labs?

A

diffuse radiolucency of bone. • Labs show low serum Calcium and Phosphorus with high
alkaline phosphatase.

52
Q

HYPERPARATHYROIDISM primary and secondary?

A

Primary results from hyperplasia or tumor , tends to
be severe. • Secondary is caused by prolonged state of
hypocalcemia; relatively mild. • Skeletal manifestations are caused by osteoclastic bone
resorption. • Increased osteoclastic activity affects cortical bone.
