PATHOLOGY OF BONE
Bone is a complex tissue, composed of a large and
varied cell component. All of which are subject to
disease.
Bone has great structural stability, being in constant
turnover.
Pathology of bone can be divided into:
• Developmental (genetic) Disorders
• Metabolic Disorders
• Inflammation
• Neoplasia
GENETIC DISORDERS
OSTEOMA
OSTEOID OSTEOMA
OSTEOSARCOMA (Osteogenic
sarcoma)
OSTEOMA
Rare benign tumor,
Found in the skull, most commonly in the
head ands neck
Localized, usually solitary,hard,
exophytic growths attached to the
surface of the bone
Histologically composed of lamellar
bone, comprised of dense normal bone
OSTEOID OSTEOMA
Benign lesion
Rarely exceed 1.5 cm in diameter,but painfull
Occur in first 2 decade of life
Arise within the cortex of the tibia and femur
(near the end): interlacing trabecular osteoid
surrounding bone are stimulated into
neoosteogenesis dense sclerotic enclosing
shell (x-ray: radiolucent nidus enclosed with
sclerotic shell)
OSTEOID OSTEOMA
Near periosteum this neoosteogenesis
may deform the external contour
Excision.
Recurrent, but rarely malignant
OSTEOSARCOMA
(osteogenic sarcoma)
Most common primary bone tumor
Affect young people age 10 to 25
Femur, tibia and humerus are common sites,
75% occur on the knee
Pain is early feature, metastatic (lung) at time
of diagnosis
Usually begin in the medullary cavity,
penetrate outward through the cortical bone
Histologic features may vary, but all produce
malignant osteoid
Osteosarcoma (2)
