Skeletal Activities - Bone fracture, Healing, and Treatment Flashcards
bone grows in length via __________ and in width via __________
- endochondral ossification
- appositional growth
7 stages in initial bone development through endochondral ossification
- hyaline cartilage model
- calcification of cartilage
- primary ossification center formation
- medullary cavity development
- secondary ossification centers formation
- formation of compact bone
- mature bone
______ and ______ cartilage growth causes the cartilage model to lengthen and broaden
- interstitial
- appositional
Does a medullary cavity occur in a secondary ossification center?
No
During fetal bone development, cartilage is entirely replaced by bone except for __________ and __________
- epiphyseal growth plate
- articular cartilage
In mature bone the only cartilage remaining is where?
on the articular suraces
_________ spongiosa is made up of immature trabeculae
primary
_________ spongiosa is made up of mature trabeculae
secondary
________: the sculpting process that follows the elongation of growth. process by which the overall shape is changed in response to physiologic and/or mechanical influence
bone modeling
during bone modeling, bone formation occurs at the ________ surface and bone resorption occurs at the ________ surface
- periosteal surface
- endosteal surface
________: wherein old bone is resorbed by osteoclasts and replaced by new bone at the same surface
bone remodeling
(bone modeling/bone remodeling) does NOT result in a change in the shape or position of bone
bone remodeling
3 things that can shift the balance between bone formation and resorption
- drugs
- hormones
- mechanical forces
What does BRU stand for?
Bone Remodeling Unit
4 stages a BRU goes through
- resorption
- reversal
- formation
- resting
_____: BRU stage where osteoclasts break down mineralized matrix, creating an erosion cavity
resorption
_____: BRU stage where mononuclear cells prepare bone surface for new osteoblasts that will form bone
reversal
_____: BRU stage where osteoblasts synthesize osteoid, which is then mineralized
formation
_____: the BRU holding stage between remodeling cycles
resting
_______ is a condition where bone resorption outweighs bone formation, commonly seen in human females following menopause
osteoporosis
bone adapts to loading by modifying its ________ and/or ____________
- mass
- architecture
_______: a break in the continuity of bone
fracture
5 areas of fracture classification
- etiology
- displacement
- relation to the external environment
- pattern
- location
3 etiological categories of fractures
- traumatic
- pathologic fracture
- stress fracture
