Muscoskeletal EXAM Flashcards
1
Q
Osteoporosis
A
- Acquired
- Reduced bone mass, increase fragility and fractures
- Bone has normal mineral content
- Primary- aging
- Secondary- known specific reason, ex too much of a hormone
2
Q
Osteoporosis-menopause
A
Decrease in estrogen leads to excessive bone remodeling and accelerated bone loss due to imbalance in clast and blast
Increase in osteoclast
3
Q
Osteoporosis- Aging
A
- Decrease of osteoprogenitor cells
- Decresed Ostoblast activity
- Decreased physical activity
4
Q
Osteoporosis- nutrition
A
Decrease in calcium and vitamin D
5
Q
Osteoporosis- Endocrine
A
Hyperparathyroidism
Addison disease
6
Q
Rickets-Osteomalacia
A
- Acquired
- Soft bones
- Result of VITAMIN D deficiency
- also inadequeate phosphorous and calcium
- Inadequeate mineralization of bone
- Rickets- children apiphyseal plates open
- Osteomalacia- adults plates closed
7
Q
Parathyroid hormone
A
- Role- Increase plasma Calcium concentration
- Draws from kidney and bone
- Stimulates osteoclasts
- Stimulates kidney to activate Vitamin D
- Inhibited by
- plasma calcium concentration
- Active Vitamin D
8
Q
Hyperparathyroidism
A
- Acquired
- Too much PTH
- Primary
- excess secretion
- Secondary
- Inc of PTH from chronic disease that cause hypocalcemia (renal failure)
9
Q
Scurvy
A
- Acquired
- Too little vit C
- Leads to impaired osteoid matrix formation
- Manifestations
- osteoporosis
- bleeding gums
- Subperiosteal hemmorhage
10
Q
Bisphosphanate-associated Osteonecrosis
A
- Bisphosphanates aim to neutralize osteoclasts
- Effect bones with high remodeling rates (JAW)
- BON develops after surgery, extraction
11
Q
Osteosarcoma
A
- Malignant bone tumor, bone forming
- Primary osteosarcoma
- Metaphysis of distal femur
- 10-20 years
- Sun burst pattern on radiograph
- Secondary
- femur, humerus pelvis
- Jaw osteosarcome develops a decade after long bones
- Elevated plasma alkaline phosphatase
- Codman triangle
12
Q
A
