P4 PATHOLOGY Flashcards
pathology of osteonecrosis & osteoporosis
death of bone & BM due to interference of blood supply & absence of infection is known as
Aseptic / avascular bone necrosis
mention at least 4 causes of osteonecrosis
1- emboli
2- systemic diseases
3- radiation
4- trauma
5- corticosteroids
6- idiopathic factors
7- specific focal bone necrosis
8- thrombosis
mention the 2 types of specific focal bone necrosis
- legg-calve-perthes disease
- Kohler disease
Necrosis of navicular bone is seen in which disease
Kohler disease
legg-calve-perthes disease location
femoral head
legg-calve-perthes disease age group
children
type of detachment seen in the shown coronal section of femoral head
partial detachment
type of detachment seen in the shown coronal section of femoral head
Complete detachment
in shown histology of femoral head
Describe what is seen
normal mature trabeculae of cancellous bone evenly distributed osteocytes
in shown histology of femoral head
Describe what is seen
Necrotic bone with empty lacunae & necrotic BM spaces showing dystrophic calcification
healing of necrotic cortical bone by
cutting cones / needles
healing of necrotic cancellous bone is by
creeping substitution
a metabolic bone disease characterised by diffuse lesions with reduced mineralised bone mass is known as
Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis mostly are seen at ( location )
Cancellous bones of vertebrae , ribs . Pelvis , end of long bones
balance of activity of osteoblasts , osteocytes & osteoclasts is known as
Remodelling
