| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| the crackling or grating sound caused by the bones or bones and cartilage rubbing against one another | crepitus |
| due to wear tear of age, broken bones or immobility | crepitus |
| rare malignant tumor arising in the bone | Ewing sarcoma |
| mostly in children found most often in the medullary cavity of the long bones in the body | Ewing sarcoma |
| bony growth (benign) arising from the surface of the bone | exostosis |
| type of exostosis composed of cartilage and bone which is called | osteochondromas |
| traumatic breaking of a bone | fracture |
| bone broken and a fragment of the bone can protrude through the open wound in the skin | compound fx |
| bone broken but no open wound in the skin | simple fx |
| broken in several pieces | comminuted fx |
| broken in a twisting motion | spiral |
| broken bone at an angle | oblique |
| a bone cracks on one side only, not all the way through the bone. looks like a branch that has broken and splintered on one side | green stick fracture |
| a restoration of the bone to it normal position | reduction |
| a reduction without a surgical incision | closed reduction |
| a surgical incision is made for access to the fracture site | open reduction |
| this involves insertion of metal plates and screws or pins to stabilize the bone | open reduction/internal fixation ORIF |
| placed on the body part of the injury or broken bone | cast for a fractures |
| when is a cast put on a fracture | after a closed reduction |
| why is a cast put on a fracture | to stabilize the body part to heal |
| malignant tumor arising from the osteoblast | osteogenic sarcoma |
| formation of the bone with cell | osteoblast |
| tends to be found in the end of long bones in children and adolecsents | osteogenic sarcoma |
| softening bone with inadequate amounts of mineral (calcium) in the bone | osteomalacia |
| inflammation of bone and bone marrow secondary to infection | osteomyelitis |
| decrease in bone density (mass) | osteoporosis |
| Bone density test | dexa scan |
| detects the density indicate osteopenia and osteoporosis | dual-energy x-ray absoptiometry |
| loss of bone mass due to osteoporosis presented by a curvature of the spine | kyphosis |
| also known as a humpback or hunchback | kyphosis |
| this condition puts pressure on the spinal cord which will reduce a persons height and stances | kyphosis |
| where the spinal column is bent abnormally to the side | scoliosis |
| increased anterior curvature of the lumbar spine or it in other mammals can be called a swayback | lordosis |
| this condition affects the growth of new bone or replacement bones in adults | osteitis deformans |
| also known as Paget's disease | osteitis deformans |
| leads to the bones becoming enlarged, weak and easily to break | osteitis deformans |
| Talus means | ankle |
| pes means | foot |
| where the foot is turned in and under | talipes |
| in infants and called clubfoot can be corrected by braces or surgery so that they are able to stand with the sole flat on the ground | talipes |
| chronic progressive arthritis with stiffening of the joints, primarily of the spine | ankylosing spondylitis |
| hardening or fusion like of the joints with inflammation | ankylosing spondylitis |
| inflammation and painful swelling in and around the joint caused by deposits of uric acid crystals | gout gouty arthritis |
| was called the king or Nobel disease because the Nobel ate food high in uric acid such as red meant, red wines, ales, nuts and fermented cheese | gout gouty arthritis |
| hyperuricemia accumulates in the joint and because they are uric acid crystals with jagged edges it articular cartilage | cause of gout |
| progressive, degenerative disease with loss of cartilage and hypertrophy of the bone | Osteoarthritis |
| OA | Osteoarthritis |
| known as degenerative joint disease | Osteoarthritis |
| chronic joint condition with inflammation and pain due to auto immune reaction | rheumatoid arthritis |
| RA | rheumatoid arthritis |
| synovial membrane fluid inflamed and thickened | rheumatoid arthritis |
| this prevents proper movement and can get so bad that bone ankylosis becomes abnormal stiffening of the joints so they are almost like fused together with calcification of bone | rheumatoid arthritis |
| enlargement of bone tissue around the joint at the base of the big toe | bunion |
| compression of the median nerve as it passes between transverse ligament, bones, tendons, and wrist | carpal tunnel syndrome |
| because of the compression the fingers become numb this is when surgery starts to become an option | carpal tunnel syndrome |
| displacement of a bone from a joint | dislocation |
| treatment for dislocation | reduction |
| restoration of the bones to their normal position | reduction |
| fluid filled sac arising from the joint capsule or tendons | ganglion cyst |
| treat is remove fluid of the cyst | ganglion cyst |
| abnormal protrusion of intervertebral disk into the spinal canal or spinal nerves | herniation disk of the intervertebral disk |
| treatment can be to remove a portion of the disc what is this treatment called | microdiscectomy |
| marked by a "bullseye" rash from a tick bine that is carrying bacteria | Lyme disease / Lyme arthritis |
| chronic, recurrent disorder marked by arthritis, myalgia, and being tired | Lyme disease / Lyme arthritis |
| hallmark sign of redden butterfly rash | systemic lupus erythematosus |
| autoimmune disease that affects and causes inflammation in the joints, kidneys, central nervous system, heart and lungs | systemic lupus erythematosus |
| progressive weakness and degeneration of muscle fibers without involvement of the nervous system | muscular dystrophy |
| pseudohypertrophy, S/S | how a muscle can appear in muscular dystrophy |
| fat that has replaced functional muscle cells that have atrophied | pseudohypertrophy |
| muscle weakness, stumbling prominent "winged" scapula` | S/S |
| chronic inflammatory myopathy / autoimmune disorder / symmetric disorder of muscle weakness and pain | polymyositis |
