Hematologic Disorders with Associated Arthropathies Flashcards
It is marked by flawed hemoglobin
Sickle Cell Disease
The osteoarticular involvement in sickle cell disease has been poorly studied and it is mainly characterized by:
- Osteonecrosis
- Osteomyelitis
- Arthritis
The deoxygenation and polymerization of _______________, which results in sickling and vascular occlusion, occur more often in tissues with low blood flow, such as in the bones. Bone microcirculation is a common place for erythrocyte sickling, which leads to thrombosis, infarct and necrosis.
hemoglobin S
Pathogenesis of sickle cell disease
1, Microvascular Occlusion
A frequent complication in sickle cell disease, with a painful and debilitating pattern.
generally insidious and progressive, affecting mainly the hips (femur head) and shoulders (humeral head).
Osteonecrosis
Also known as hand-foot syndrome, is an acute vaso-occlusive complication characterized by pain and edema in both hands and feet, frequently with increased local temperature and erythema.
Dactylitis
The most common form of joint infection in sickle cell disease.
Osteomyelitis
A condition usually an inherited bleeding disorder in which the blood does not clot properly.
Hemophilia
- The main cause of chronic pain and disability in people with severe hemophilia.
- Answer on no. 2 most commonly occurs in?
- Joint Bleeds
- Knees, Elbows, and Ankles
Pathogenesis of Hemophilia
- multifactorial, with changes occurring in the synovium, bone, cartilage, and blood vessels
Hemophilia A
Factor 8
Hemophilia B
Factor 9
