| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What occurs in adolescents who experience contractions of tendinous attachments? | Avulsion fx of pelvs |
| What uses a decreased exposure, shows osteophytes, and occurs in many persons by age 40? | Osteoarthritis |
| Also known as giant cell tumors | Osteoclastomas |
| Has a "sunburst" pattern. Usually seen in long bones. The peak age is 20 years old. | Osteogenic Sarcomas |
| Often in teenagers and young adults. Associated with pain that worsens at night. | Osteod Osteomas |
| Is common in midlife and if men. | Paget's Disease |
| Also called Osteitis Deformans | Paget's Disease |
| Radiographic Appearance of a small, round-oval density with a lucent center. | Osteoid Osteomas |
| One of the most common disease of the skeleton and is a nonneoplastic bone disease. "Cotton-wool appearance" | Paget's Disease |
| Affects the sacroiliac joints and lower limbs of young men. Associated with arthritis, urethritis, and conjuctivitis. | Reiter Syndrome |
| The specific area is the Achilles tendon on the posterior margin of calcaneous. Has an appearance of calcaneous erosion | Reiter Syndrome |
| Inflammation of the bone and cartilage of the anterior proximal tibia and is most common in boys 10-15 years old | Osgood-Schlatter |
| Occurs when patellar tendon detaches part of the tibial tuberosity | Osgood-Schlatter |
| Increased exposure with an avulsion fx | Lisfranc Joint Injury |
| Moderate sprain characterized by abnormal separation between 1st and 2nd metatarsals. | Lisfranc Joint Injury |
| A radiographic appearance of mutiple "punched out" osteolyte lesions. Occurs between 40-70 years of age. | Multiple Myeloma |
| Noninflammatory joint disease with deterioration of articular cartilage. Hypertrophic bone formation | Osteoarthritis |
| Occurs mostly in diaphysis of long bone and has symptoms similar to osteomyelitis. | Ewing's Sarcoma |
| A common primary malignant bone tumor often found in children and young adults. | Ewing's Sarcoma |
| Accumulated fluid in joint cavity | Joint Effusions |
| A form of arthritis that may be hereditary, and it occurs mainly in men after the age of 30. | Gout |
| Often occurs in the 1st MTP jt. Uric acid in blood and jts | Gout |
| Also called Osteochondroma and is classified as overproduction of bone at a jt | Exotosis |
| Usually occurs in the knee with a tumor that grows parallel to the bone. | Exotosis |
| Radiographic appearance is a projection of bone with cartilaginous cap. | Exotosis |
| Causes extreme pain and can be difficult to diagnose. | Avulsion fx of pelvis |
| The force of sliding over tuberosities, ASIS, AIIS, superior corner of symphysis pubis, and iliac crest may cause avulsion fx. | Avulsion fx of pelvis |
| Appear as "bubbles" with radiolucent lesions with thin strips of bone between | Osteoclastomas |
| Bone softening cause by lack of bone mineralization by lack of calcium and vitamin D | Osteomalacia |
| Also called "Rickets." Has an appearance of "bowing" defect in weight-bearing bones | Osteomalacia |
| Slow growing, benign tumor. Most often found in small bones of hands and feet in adolescents and young adults | Enchondroma |
| Can lead to a fracture. An appearance of a radiolucent tumor. | Enchondroma |
| Malignant tumors of cartilage in the pelvis and long bones. | Chondrosarcoma |
| Calcifications in the tumor Usually in men older than 45 | Chondrosarcoma |
| Also called "runner's knee" | Chondromalacia Patellae |
| Is a softening of cartilage under the patella. Possible misalignment of the patella. | Chondromalacia Patellae |
