This document provides information on bones and joints: - It describes the two types of bone (cortical and cancellous), their structures and properties. Long bones like the tibia have a shaft and ends made of these bones. - Bone remodeling, growth, blood supply and common musculoskeletal problems are discussed. Peak bone mass is important for bone health. - Different joint types (fibrous, cartilaginous, synovial) and their structures are outlined. Synovial joints like the knee allow more movement. - Common bone and joint injuries in children and their causes are summarized. Stress fractures can result from overuse or low bone density.

- 33. LONG BONES Long bones • Have a cartilaginous ossification • Are found mainly in the limbs and consist of: • Shaft (the diaphysis), which is ossified from the primary center of ossification during intrauterine life • The cavity of the shaft, contains red marrow in the fetus, yellow fat in the adult
- 34. BONE GROWTH • Diaphysis: shaft ossified from primary center of ossification which appears 6-8th week of intrauterine life • Epiphysis: ossified from secondary center • Growth plate is cartilage • Injury of epiphysis affects growth
- 35. EPIPHYSIS • Is ossified from a secondary center of ossification • These usually appear shortly after birth • Except for the lower end of the femur, which appears 9 months intrauterine life, just before birth • Epiphysis unite with the diaphysis (shaft) from puberty to early twenties depending on the bone involved
- 36. METAPHYSIS • The portion of the diaphysis beside the epiphysis is called the metaphysis • This is the region where osteomyelitis tends to occur in young people • The metaphyseal arteries are end arteries until ossification is completed i.e. the epiphyseal plate is ossified

- 45. BLOOD SUPPLY OF BONE • Periosteal arteries occur particularly at the sites of attachments of muscles and tendons • If a group of muscles inserted into a bone is paralysed before puberty • That bone will be shorter than the equivalent bone on the other side • Due to reduced blood supply from the muscles involved • The lack of stimulus to bone from lack of muscle contractions • After puberty only muscle bulk is reduced

Editor's Notes
- Alterations of the RANK Ligand/OPG ratio are critical in the pathogenesis of bone diseases that result in increased bone resorption: Unopposed RANK Ligand (i.e. an elevated RANK Ligand/OPG ratio) within the skeleton promotes bone loss Restoring a balanced RANK Ligand/OPG ratio or inhibiting RANK Ligand decreases osteoclast activation and bone resorption.1–3 In many diseases involving increased bone resorption, RANK Ligand expression is upregulated by osteoclastogenic factors (growth factors, hormones, cytokines), while OPG expression is simultaneously downregulated.3
- Bone remodelling is the process by which old bone is replaced by new bone. Bone remodelling consists of four phases: resting, resorption, reversal and formation.1 During the resorption phase, osteoclasts remove both mineral and organic components of bone matrix by generating an acidic microenvironment between the cell and bone. Once the osteoclasts have resorbed most of the mineral and organic matrix, they undergo apoptosis during the reversal phase and osteoblasts are recruited to the bone surface. In the formation phase, osteoblasts deposit new, healthy osteoid (unmineralised collagen matrix), which is subsequently mineralised, resulting in good-quality bone.
- This figure by Compston (1990), illustrates the changes in bone mass throughout life and shows the rapid bone loss that occurs at the menopause. Bone mass in both men and women increases until a peak is attained at around age 30. In both sexes, a slow rate of bone loss starts at around age 40. However, in women, the accelerated postmenopausal phase of bone loss is superimposed on top of this slow loss phase. Rates of bone loss in postmenopausal women can be as great as 5-6% per year. In women, oestrogen deficiency is the major determinant of bone loss after the menopause due to the removal of the ‘brakes’ from Osteoclastic activity. The accelerated bone loss is important to remember when looking at preventative therapies for osteoporosis. Unlike treatment for the established disease when relatively large increases in bone mass are observed in response to therapy, a preventative strategy may be said to have been effective if the bone mass is maintained.
