Mod. 11: Skeletal Disorders Flashcards
what type of collagen is in bone, ligaments and tendons for tensile strength?
Type 1
what type of collagen in hyaline cartilage?
Type 2q
part of periosteum for growing the length of bones (long bones)
endochondral growth
part of periosteum for growing the thickness of bones (flat bones)
intramembranous growth
abnormal excessive thoracic curvature of spine
kyphosis
structural kyphosis that is angular and sharp, usually d/t a compression fracture
Gibbus deformity
excess curvature of lumbar spine in anterior pelvic tilt
Lordosis
lateral spinal curvature that’s functional, degenerative, or neuromuscular
Scoliosis
narrowing of lumbar vertebrae or IV foramina which causes degeneration & nerve impingement
Spinal stenosis
s/s: pain w/ lumbar extension, relief w/ lumbar flexion; unilateral nerve root radiculopathy
spinal stenosis
vitamin D (+calcium & phosphate) deficiency: in children (1) and adults (1)
children: rickets
adults: osteomalacia
bone loses density & strength d/t estrogen reduction, prolonged corticosteroids, smoking etc
osteoporosis
contraindications for osteoporosis (3)
resisted spinal flexion exercises
joint mobilization
traction
chronic metabolic disease when overgrowth of new bone occurs more quickly than breakdown of old bone; bone is replaced with a solid structure
Paget’s Disease
s/s: pain, stiffness, fatigue, bone deformities
w/ complications: nerve compression, secondary hyperparathyroidism, hypo/hypercalcemia, heart failure
Paget’s Disease
bone infection as a complication of trauma; often d/t staph infection
osteomyelitis
when TB spreads from other body organs to the spine
skeletal tuberculosis
an infection with arthritis in the spine
Pott’s disease/
tubercolosis spondylitis
when a disease weakens the bone and causes it to fracture; d/t cancer, osteoporosis
pathologic fracture
Complete fractures: (5)
-runs at right angle to bone axis
-runs in diagonal direction
-when bone has been twisted
-runs entire length of bone
-splintered or crushed bone
transverse fracture
oblique
spiral
longitudinal
commuinuted
Other types of fractures: (5)
-when one side is broken and the other side bent
-when bone fragments are out of position
-bone is “impacted”/mashed down
-bone separates from cortex where tendon/lig attached
-forms star-like pattern from radiating fissures at point of injury
greenstick fracture
displaced
compression/impacted
avulsion
stellate
fracture occurring from a fall on an outstretched hand: a transverse fx of distal radius (looks like bayonet deformity)
Colles’ fracture
when physical stress causes rupture of fibrous annulus & nucleus pupulsus pushes outside of disk to impinge nerves
Herniated IV disc
what type of exercise should be used for posteriorlateral herniated discs?
which lumbosacral joint is usually affected?
extension-based
L4/L5, L5/S1
increased pressure in mm compartment/fascial space
-lack of expansion leads to nerve/mm damage & blood flow issues
Compartment Syndrome
benign bone tumor that develops in cortex of long bones
Osteoid Ostoma
benign bone tumor occurring in spine, sacrum, or flat bones (can become malignant)
osteoblastoma
malignant bone tumor that grows rapidly in long bones of youth
osteosarcoma
malignancy that develops in bone marrow & appears in femur diaphysis
Ewing’s sarcoma
malignant cartilaginous cells in long bones, pelvis, scapula
chondrosarcoma
