Osteogenesis Imperfecta aka
Brittle bones
Osteogenesis imperfecata is a group of bone disorders with abnormal
Synthesis of type I collagen
Skeletal fragility
Osteo. Imperfecta moats are autosomal ___
Dominant
Osteo. Imperfecta teeth might look
Opalescent teeth
Dentinogensis very similar
Osteo. Imperfecta sclera
Blue
Prognosis of Osteo. Imperfecta depends on
Type and expression of the gene
Osteopetrosis aka
Marble bone disease
Osteopetrosis is a group of
Rare hereditary bone distorted with defective bone remodeling
Osteopetrosis is a dysfunction of
Osteolclast
Osteopetrosis affected bone
Is dense but structurally unsound and weake
Osteopetrosis prone to
Fractures and infections
Osteopetrosis can cause narrowing of
Cranial formanina
Leading to blindness deafness
Osteopetrosis can undergo bone marrow transplant which
Can repopulate functional osteoclasts
-derived from monocytes precursors
Osteoporosis is an increased
Porosity of the skeleton resulting from reduced bone mass
—> increased bone fragility
Osteoporosis affect
Postmeno females—-> reduced estrogen
______% of women sustain fractures by age 65
25%
___% females sustain fractures by 90
50%
Osteoporosis is an imbalance of
Favor is in osteoclasts
Reduced osteoblasts activity
Peak bone mass
Genetic factors
Physical activity
Nutrition
Menopause
Decreased estrogen
Increased IL1 IL6 TNF levels
Increased expression of RANK, RANKL
Increased osteoclast activity
Aging
Decreased replicative activity of osteoprogentior cells
Decreased synthetic activity of Ob
Decreased biologic activity of matrix bound growth factors
Reduced physical activity
Most common osteoporosis sites
Vertebral bodies
Pelvis
Femoral neck
Other weight bearing bones
Osteoporosis may lead to
Kyphoscoliosis and subsequent reduced respiratory function
Osteoporosis diagnosis
Dual X-ray absoprotometry
DEXA scan
Osteoporosis treatment
Diet and exercise Calcium and VIt D supplement Bisphosphonates Hormone therapy Monoclonal Ab
Pagets Disease of Bone abnormal
Dense bone formation whic is structurally weak and prone to fracture
Pagets Disease usually affects
Multiple bone (85% polyostotic)
Pagets Disease usually affects who
Adults> 40
Paramyxovirus infection suspected
Pagets Disease usually asymptomatic but
Bone enlargement Fractures Pain Cranial nerve compression Bowing of legs
Pagets Disease 3 Phases
Osteolytic Phase
Mixed Phase
Osteosclerotic Phase
Pagets Disease Treatment
Calcitonin, bisphosphonates
Analgesics for bone pain
Bone is Pagets Disease has a ______appearance
Mosaic
Very random placement of bone
Hyperparathyroidism inappropriate secretion of
PTH
Primary Hyperparathyroidism
Due to parathyroid hyperplasia adenoma or carcinoma more severe but less common
Secondary Hyperparathyroidism
Leads to poor calcium retention and lowered viatamine D metabolism common complication of end stage renal disease of vitamin deficiency
Which Hyperparathyroidism is less common and more severe
Primary Hyperparathyroidism
