Q

Callus formation steps

A

Fracture hematoma
Forms blood clot
Replaced by fibroblasts, lay down colagen
Pro callus: osteoblast formation, lay down bone, true callus
Remodeled by osteoblasts & phagocytes, to make normal and healthy

Q

Epicondylitis

A

Inflammation of a tendon where it attaches to the bone

18
Q

What are the 2 major forms of epicondylitis

A
Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis, tennis backhand)
Golfers elbow (medial epicondylitis, golf swing)
19
Q

Rhabdomyolysis (myoglobinuria)

A

Life-threatening complication of severe muscle trauma with muscle cell loss
Skeletal muscle breaking open

20
Q

Crush syndrome

A

Rhabdomyolysis, crushing type trauma

21
Q

Compartment syndrome

A

Rhabdomyolysis, blood supply pressure issue

Type of: Volkmann ischemic contracture

22
Q

Osteoporosis

A

Porous bone
Hormone imbalance
Post-menopausal women are more at risk
Over activity of osteoclasts (bone destroying)

23
Q

Osteopenia

A

Start to lose bone density, but not at osteoporosis yet

24
Q

What are the normal curvature names?

A

Kyphotic (primary curvatures)

Lordotic (secondary curvatures)

25
Iatrogenic osteoporosis
From meds or treatment
26
Regional osteoporosis
Rare, usually systematic
27
Glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis
Steroid induced | Most common iatrogenic osteoporosis
28
Kyphosis
Hunchback | Over curvature of thoracic vertebrae
29
Lordosis
Sway back/ saddle back | Over curvature of cervical or lumbar vertebrae
30
Osteomalacia
Deficiency of vitamin D lowers calcium absorption from intestines Soft bone
31
Osteomyelitis
Most often caused by staphylococcal infection Most often from open wound (exogenous) Bone infection
32
Osteoarthritis
Noninflammatory Degeneration and loss of articular cartilage (bone on bone rubbing) Degenerative joint disease Primary disease is idiopathic (don't know cause) Often isolated to one side
33
Rheumatoid Arthritis
``` Inflammatory joint disease Systemic autoimmune Infectious or noninfectious (genetics, environment) Antibodies against our antibodies Usually symmetrical ```
34
Ankylosing Spondylitis
Inflammatory joint disease (often spine) | Due to inflammation, joint goes under repair, stiffens and fusing of joints and bone
35
Gout
Metabolic disorder Uric acid production or excretion problem Uric acid concentration increases and crystallizes (gouty arthritis)
36
Gouty arthritis
Inflammation in the joints | When uric acid crystallizes in the joints
37
Contracture
Skeletal muscle disorder | No AP but muscle is contracting
38
Disuse atrophy
Not using the muscle, muscle shrinks, reversible
39
Fibromyalgia
Pain disorder | Pain weakness and pain
40
Toxic myopathies
Myopathy: muscle disease or damage Toxins in body damage muscles causing toxic myopathies Most common cause: alcohol abuse Drugs can also cause
41
Osteosarcoma
Most common bone cancer
