Achondroplasia
An autosomal dominant condition in which there is impaired formation of the long bones due to Impaired proliferation of cartilage at growth plate. Is one of the MC causes of dwarfism Clinical findings: Normal sized head and vertebral column Shortened arms and legs (dwarfism) Normal intelligence, life span and reproductive ability. Normal GH and insulin growth factor -1 levels. 3
Achondroplasia
Molecular basis: point mutation in gene coding for fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) Inhibits cartilage synthesis at growth plate Decreased growth of long bones
4
Osteogenesis imperfecta
AKA "brittle bone diseases or fragilitas ossium. A group of diseases having in common defective synthesis of type I collagen. Due to mutations in genes coding for 1 & 2 chains of collagen. Pathology: Generalized osteopenia (brittle bone) Resulting in recurrent fractures and skeletal deformity. Disease affects skeleton and other tissues 5 rich in type I collagen.
Osteogenesis imperfecta
Types: Several types are known (Type I-IV) Most are autosomal dominant***. Clinical findings: pathological fractures** at birth blue sclera** : due to reflection of underlying choroidal veins. Deafness : involvement of bone of inner and middle ear Thin dermis easy bruising. Dental imperfections. 6 Type II is lethal in utero
Osteogenesis imperfecta
Blue sclera
Osteogenesis imperfecta
Absence of marrow
11
Osteopetrosis
X-ray findings:
Osteosclerosis
Broadened metaphysis
12
Occurs in two forms autosomal dominant (usually mild) or autosomal recessive (usually severe). Clinical findings: Pathologic fractures Pancytopenia and leukoerythroblastic blood picture: Replacement of marrow cavity by bone. Extramedullary hematopoiesis: hepatosplenomegaly Cranial nerve compression: Due to narrowing of cranial foramina May result in blindness, deafness and facial nerve palsies. 13 Treatment: bone marrow transplant
14
Osteoporosis
Refers to increased porosity of skeleton. Occurs due to: Loss of organic bone matrix and minerals. Resulting in : decreased bone mass and density. decreased thickness of cortical and trabecular bone. Osteoporotic bones: thin and fragile and are susceptible to fracture.
15
Osteoporosis
Pathogenesis: Osteoporosis results from a slight excess of bone resorption over bone deposition, continuing over many years. Epidemiology: Is the most common metabolic abnormality of bone. MC occurs in postmenopausal Caucasian women and the elderly.
16
TYPES of osteoporosis
A: Localized : e.g. disuse OP of a limb B: Generalized: involves entire skeleton. Two types 1. Primary: Old age (Senile) Osteoblasts with diminished capacity to make new bone Physical inactivity Estrogen deficiency (postmenopausal) 2. Secondary: due to underlying disease Cushings disease (hypercortisolism) Drugs (heaprin and steroids) Space travel 17

Osteoporosis
Clinical findings: Bone pain Weight bearing bones predisposed to # Compression # of vertebral bodies (most common) Colles # of distal radius. # femoral neck. Loss of height and kyphosis
25
26
Pathology
thin cortical bone and thin trabecular bone
27
Diagnosis: Dual energy X ray absorptiometry (DEXA) evaluate bone density. Prevention of postmenopausal osteoporosis: weight bearing exercises: walking, not swimming calcium, vitamin D supplements estrogen replacement therapy Unopposed estrogen increases the risk of endometrial Ca. Prevented by addition of progesterone. Treatment: Bisphosphonates: inhibit bone resorption. Calcitonin: inhibits osteoclasts SERM: selective estrogen receptor modulators

Osteoclasts
Fibrosis

31
33
Renal osteodystrophy
Osteomalacia secondary to chronic renal disease. Pathogenesis: Chronic renal failure causes Hypocalcemia Due to lack of conversion of inactive vitamin D into active vit.D Hypocalcemia results in secondary hyperparathyroidism PTH secretion stimulates osteoclast activity

38
Pathogenesis
Three stages of Paget disease: 1.Osteolytic stage 2.Mixed osteolytic-osteoblastic stage 3.Osteosclerotic (burnt out stage)
39
40
Clinical findings: Asymptomatic in most cases Elevated alkaline phosphatase* Bone pain from Pathologic fractures* Skeletal deformities* (tibial bowing, skull enlargement; increased hat size) Hearing loss:* narrowing of foramina Warmth of overlying skin due to bone hypervascularity. High output cardiac failure (due to AV connections in vascular bone)* Increased risk of osteogenic sarcoma*.

Microscopic features: Haphazard arrangement of cement lines creating a mosaic pattern .

Osteonecrosis: Morphology
Osteonecrosis: Can involve The medullary cavity or The subchondral region Medullary infarct: involves marrow and the cancellous bone. usually clinically silent. Remains stable Subchondral infarct: Involves the subchondral bone Wedge shaped area of necrosis with viable overlying articular cartilage Causes chronic pain Collapse predispose to osteoarthritis

Osteonecrosis

50
Osteonecrosis in children
May involve characteristic sites: Legg-Calve-Perthes disease: Aseptic necrosis involving the ossification center in the femoral head. Occurs most often in boys 3-10 years of age. Pain in knee or limp secondary osteoarthritis is common. Kohler bone disease: Aseptic necrosis of navicular bone
51
Osgood-Schlatter disease
Inflammation of proximal tibial apophysis at insertion of patellar tendon. Affects physically active boys 11-15 yrs of age Produces permanent knobby appearing knees.
