Musculoskeletal - Benign Bone disorders Flashcards
Loss of bone quantity while bone quality is normal.
osteoporosis
Senile type of osteoporosis is MC in _____ and due to lack of ________
Men
Growth hormone
Loss of bone quality with softening of the bone.
osteomalacia
Looser’s zones on x-rays of bones.
osteomalacia
Loss of bone quality in children, bowlegs and Rachitic rosary (swollen costochondral joints) decrease vitamin D
rickets
Brown (hemosiderin) bone cysts and hypercalcemia due to hyperparathyroidism.
osteitis fibrosa cystica
Reduced bone mineral density, age, postmenopausal women, nutrient deficiency, much worse in women.
osteoporosis
Osteoporosis MC fracture sites:
Vertebral body compression
Femoral neck
Osteolysis followed by deposition of disorganized bone, enlarged bone that lacks strength, “shaggy” appearance.
Paget’s disease
Shows up on x-ray with “Ivory vertebra” and also seen axial skeleton, femur, skull, pelvis and has fractures and nerve compression.
Paget’s disease
Disruption of vascular supply to bone (fracture), bony necrosis, hip and shoulder.
Avascular necrosis
Arrested development of bone, bone softening, most sever when involving multiple bones (polyostotitc), femur (Shepard’s crook), craniofacial distortion, sever distortion.
Fibrous dysplasia
Polyostotic dysplasia, café-au-lait spots precocious puberty (endocrinopathy).
McCune-Albright syndrome
Malignant, adolescent, Caucasians, femur, pelvis, periosteal reaction (onion skinning)
Ewing sarcoma
Bone marrow infection, S. aureus, M tuberculosis, involucrum
Osteomyelitis
Pronounced ankylosis on the anterior segment of vertebral bodies, common on anterior cervical vertebrae, “flowing ossification” or “melted candle wax”, idiopathic, diabetes.
Diffuse Idiopathic Skeletal Hyperostosis (DISH)
DISH aka
Forestier’s disease
Benign, round lesion, smaller than 2 cm in diameter, subcortical, central nidis (radiolucent), pain, nocturnal pain that is relieved by aspirin.
Osteoid osteoma
Malignant, aggressive, adolescents, periosteal reaction (Codman’s triangle, sunburst), metaphyseal region of long bones, very common around knee, amputation.
osteosarcoma
MC bone forming tumor in adolescents.
osteosarcoma.
Benign, large cartilage-capped outgrowth, metaphysics, males, age 10-30, slow growing, cortex merges, common around knee
Osteochondroma
Several osteochondromas called?
Multiple hereditary exostosis
Benign, circular lucency with a narrow ring of sclerosis, almost always in hands.
enchondroma
Multiple enchondromas of the hand
Ollier disease
Malignant, periosteal reaction (thinning or thickening), adult males, pelvis, shoulders, may develop inside medullary cavity and may expand into surrounding soft tissue (palpable mass)
Chondrosarcoma
Fibroblast growth factor receptor gene mutation, shortening of long bones, frontal bossing, Midvale hypoplasia, bullet vertebrae, central spinal canal stenosis.
achondroplasia
Congenital disorder
Brittle bone disease, abnormal type I collagen, affects all extracellular matrix, weak bones, skin, joints, irregular teeth, hearing loss.
Osteogenesis imperfecta
Stone bone, dysfunctional osteoblasts, marrow fills, fractures, cranial nerve palsied, Erlenmeyer flask deformities.
Osteopetrosis
MC degenerative joint disorder.
osteoarthritis
Degenerative joint disorder, altered articular cartilage, age-related, trauma, infection may accelerate, associated with subchondral cysts, Herberden nodes
osteoarthritis
Gout MC in
males
Gout is abnormal _____ metabolism.
purine
Gout: Uric acid crystals in synovium called?
tophi
Gout MC in ______ (pdagra)
hallux
Calcific tendonitis, hydroxyapatite deposition into the tendons, idiopathic, 40-70 yrs old, reduced range of motion, pain, swelling
HADD
Hydroxyapatite deposition disease
HADD MC involves what?
Rotator cuff muscles (supraspinatus)
Phosphate deposition into cartilage, knee, wrist, faint Calcific appearance in joint space, elderly.
Calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease CPPD
CPPD aka?
pseudogout
Borrelia burgdorferi from lxodes deer tick, early bullseye rash (erythema chromium migrans
Lyme arthritis
Aggressive skeletal muscle cancer, children, head, neck. What cells?

Malignant smooth muscle tumor, uterus (females), cigar shaped nuclei
Leimyosarcoma
Benign smooth muscle tumor. Uterine fibroids, small intestine
leiomyoma
Soft tissue calcification of hands (CREST syndrome), commonly involves hands.
scleroderma
