Ossification Centers in a 12-week-old Fetus. Figure 5.32. Types of Bone Cells. Osteocytes—mature bone cells Osteoblasts—bone-forming cells Osteoclasts—bone-destroying cells Break down bone matrix for remodeling and release of calcium in response to parathyroid hormone

Types of Bone Cells • Osteocytes—mature bone cells • Osteoblasts—bone-forming cells • Osteoclasts—bone-destroying cells • Break down bone matrix for remodeling and release of calcium in response to parathyroid hormone • Bone remodeling is performed by both osteoblasts and osteoclasts

Skeletal Changes Throughout Life • Adolescence • Epiphyseal plates become ossified and long bone growth ends • Size of cranium in relationship to body

Bone Fractures • Fracture—break in a bone • Types of bone fractures • Closed (simple) fracture—break that does not penetrate the skin • Open (compound) fracture—broken bone penetrates through the skin • Bone fractures are treated by reduction and immobilization
Repair of Bone Fractures • Hematoma (blood-filled swelling) is formed • Break is splinted by fibrocartilage to form a callus • Fibrocartilage callus is replaced by a bony callus • Bony callus is remodeled to form a permanent patch

Inflammatory Conditions Associated with Joints • Bursitis—inflammation of a bursa usually caused by a blow or friction • Arthritis—inflammatory or degenerative diseases of joints • Over 100 different types • The most widespread crippling disease in the United States
Clinical Forms of Arthritis • Osteoarthritis • Most common chronic arthritis • Probably related to normal aging processes • Rheumatoid arthritis • An autoimmune disease—the immune system attacks the joints • Symptoms begin with bilateral inflammation of certain joints • Often leads to deformities
Clinical Forms of Arthritis • Gouty arthritis • Inflammation of joints is caused by a deposition of uric acid crystals from the blood • Can usually be controlled with diet
The Vertebral Column Figure 5.16
Skeletal Changes Throughout Life • Osteoporosis • Bone-thinning disease afflicting • 50% of women over age 65 • 20% of men over age 70 • Disease makes bones fragile and bones can easily fracture • Vertebral collapse results in kyphosis (also known as dowager’s hump) • Estrogen aids in health and normal density of a female skeleton
