Musculoskeletal: Pathology - Bone remodelling, growth and development Flashcards

1
Q

Four cell types found in bone and their function

A
  1. Osteoprogenitor cells: pluripotent mesenchymal stem cells that differentiate into osteoblasts
  2. Osteoblasts: synthesise, transport and arrange matrix proteins, and initiate process of mineralisation; transform into osteocytes if surrounded by newly deposited matrix
  3. Osteocytes: control calcium and phosphate in microenvironment, also responsible for mechanotransduction (translate mechanical forces into biologic activity)
  4. Osteoclasts: bind to bone via integrins and form resorption (functions similarly to lysosome)

Q

Describe the three stages of fracture healing

A
  1. Procallus formation:
    - Immediately after fracture, rupture of blood vessels results in haematoma formation
    - Fibrin mesh of haematoma seals off fracture site and creates framework for inflammatory cells, fibroblasts and new capillaries
    - Release of cytokines (including PDGF, TGF-B, FGF, interleukins) from platelets and inflammatory cells results in activation of osteoprogenitor cells, and stimulated of osteoclastic/osteoblastic activity
    - By end of first week, haematoma is organised, adjacent tissue is being modulated for fracture matrix production, and fractured ends of bone are being remodelled (PROCALLUS is formed)
  2. Fibrocartilaginous callus formation:
    - Activated osteoprogenitor cells deposit trabeculae of woven bone
    - In some cases, activated mesenchymal cells around the fracture line differentiate into chondroblasts and produce fibrocartilage and hyaline cartilage
    - Repair tissue reaches maximal girth at the end of the second or third week, resulting in stabilisation of fracture site
  3. Bony callus formation:
    - Cartilage along fracture line undergoes endochondral ossification and fractured ends become bridged by bony callus
    - Bony callus becomes stiffer and stronger as it is mineralised
    - Matures and is subject to weight-bearing forces: portions not physically stressed are resorbed, and callus decreases in size until shape and outline of fractured bone is re-established
    - Medullary cavity is also restored

Q

Where in the bone can avascular necrosis occur, and how does this change the presentation?

A

Can occur in medullary cavity of metaphysis/diaphysis, or in subchondral regions of epiphysis

In medullary cavity:
- Involves cancellous bone and marrow (cortex not affected due to dual blood supply)
- Asymptomatic unless large
- Stable

Subchondral:
- Triangular/wedge-shaped infarct (with subchondral plate at base)
- Articular cartilage remains viable (obtains nutrition from synovial fluid)
- Produces chronic pain (initially with activity only, then constant)
- May collapse and cause severe secondary osteoarthritis
