Path Terms Flashcards
Fibrous Osteodystrophy
Bone Change due to prolonged PTH stimulation (hyperparathyroidism)
- Nutritional
- Renal due to decreased tgfr increasing the P concentration
Hyperostosis
Increased bone production
Caused by trauma
Chronic inflammation
Idiopathic
Osteosclerosis
Abnormally dense bone due to the failure of osteoclasts activity
Osteonecrosis
Death of bone cells
Osteomyelitis
Bone and medullary tissue is inflamed
Periostieitis
Periosteal surface inflamed
Benign bone tumor
Osteoma, chondroma, ossifying fibroma, osteochondroma
Metastatic bone tumor
Osteosarcoma
Pannus
Growth of fibrovascular tissue with subsequent destruction of cartilage
Fibro consistent with fibrous
Chronic
Necrosuppurative
Necrosis with neutrophils
Pyogranulomatous
Neutrophils and macrophages
Chondromalacia
Thinning and fibrillation of cartilage due to matrix loss
Subchondral bone hyperostosis (eburnation)
Increased focal compression on subchondral plate due to loss of cartilage or abnormal joint loading
Osteosarcoma
Malignant tumornthat has a characteristic loss of cortical bone (thinned). Will not cross the bone surface
Periarticular osteophyte formation
Focal hyperostosis at attachment points of joint capsule; edges of articular surface. Due to abnormal joint loading and instability.
- this is a feature of chronic changes around the joint. The abnormal joint loading will cause hyperostosis at the periphery of the joint.

Osteochondrosis dessecans pathogenesis

Glomerulosclerosis
Reaction to long term glomerular injury
Amyloidosis
manifestation of systemic AA deposition
Glomerulonephritis: Immune complex disease
this is the #1 glomerular disease we encounter caused by antigens, Ag-ab complex accumulation
Membranous pattern of Glomerulonephritis
supepithelial plus thickened Glomerular basement membrane
Proliferative pattern of glomerulonephritis
mesangela + mesangeal cell proliferation
Membranoproliferative Pattern of glomerulonephritis
subendothelial + thickened glomerular basement membrane. This pattern can be seen in a Lyme disease case
