Bone disease

Osteomylitis :
Osteomyelitis is most often caused by staphylococcus aureus & usually affects infants & children.
The initial radiographs are normal as bone changes are not visible until 10 -14 days after the onset of the infection.

The TC 99m radionuclide bone scan and MRI show changes much earlier.

the earliest sings on plain radiographs are soft tissue swelling , and bone destruction in the metaphysis with a periosteal reaction that eventually may become very extensive and surround the bone to form an involucrum

part of the original bone may die and form a separate dense fragment known as a sequestrum

a radionuclide bone scan will show increased activity both on the early ( blood pool ) images reflecting hyperaemia and on the delayed bone phase images.

U/S can demonstrate sub periosteal collections of pus .

MRI is the imaging modality of choice & shows evidence of bone odema and pus accumulation in the bone & soft tissue .

distinction of neoplasm from osteomyelitis :

With malignant bone tumor the radiographs are usually abnormal
when the patient first presents , whereas with osteomyelitis the initial film are often normal .

The presence of fever & some times of discharging sinuses usually help to diagnose of infective lesion.

CT & MRI more informative.

Bone scanning is positive in both osteomyelitis & malignant tumour and can not be used in differentiation .

bone infarction :

Occurs most often in the intra –articular portions of the bones
Can occur in the shaft of a bone in several disease including caisson disease , sickle cell disease or following radiation therapy. . once healed , they appear as irregular calcification in the medulla of along bone.

Multiple focal lesions

Metastases :
Metastases are by far the commonest malignant bone tumor.
Metastases may be sclerotic , lytic or a mixture of lysis& sclerosis
Lytic metastases.
1- in adults most commonly arise from a carcinoma of the breast and bronchus , less commonly from carcinoma of the thyroid , kidney or colon .
2- in children from neuroblastoma or leukaemia .

Lytic metastases give rise to well defined or ill defined areas of bone destruction with out a sclerotic rim .the lesions vary from small holes to large areas of bone destruction.

Sclerotic metastases appear as ill-defined areas of increased density of varying size with ill-defined margins .
1-in men they are most commonly due to metastases from carcinoma of the prostate .
2-in women from carcinoma of breast , metastases with bone expansion occurs in primary tumour of the kidney & thyroid .

Mixed lytic & sclerotic metastases are not uncommon , they are often seen with carcinoma of beast .

A radionuclide bone scan is much more sensitive for detecting metastases than plain film .

MRI is better than radionuclide scanning for the detection of metastases, but it is more difficult to survey the whole skeleton .

Multiple myeloma :

frequently seen in bones with active haemopoiesislesions .may resemble lytic metastases in every way but are often better defined
- diffuse marrow involvement may give rise to generalized loss of bone density
MRI has good role in detecting multiple myloma lesions .

Generalized decrease bone density ( osteopenia ):

Osteoporosis :

Is the consequence of a deficiency of protein matrix ( osteoid ) . the remaining bone is normally mineralized and appears normal histologically .

The most common causes of osteoporosis are :

idiopathic .

cushing disease& steroid therapy .

.disuse .

Changes of osteoporosis are best seen in the spine , decrease in bone density, compression fractures , vertebral bodies appearing wedged or biconcave , secondary widening of disc spaces .

Long bones have thin cortices .

Screening by measuring of bone mass using DEXA .

Rickets and osteomalacia :

In these condition there are poor mineralization of osteoid .if this occur before epiphyseal closure the condition is known as rickets , in adult the condition is known as osteomalacia .
The main causes of both above conditions :.
1- Dietary deficiency of vitamin D , or lack of exposure to sunlight.

2- malabsorption.

3-Renal disease.

In osteomalacia the features are

. loss of bone density
.Thinning of the trabeculae and the cortex
.looser zones
.bone deformity vertebral bodies are biconcave , the femora may be bowed & in severe cases the side walls of the pelvis may bend inwards , giving to the so called triradiate pelvis .

In rickets the changes are maximal where bone growth is occurring , so they are best seen at the knee, wrist and ankle .seen as
. Deficient the zone of provisional calcification .
.widening with irregularly mineralized metaphyses with cupping
.increase distance between the visible epiphysis & the calcified portion of the metaphysis .
.generalized decrease in bone density .
. Deformities of the bones occur because the under mineralized bone is soft , green stick fractures are common .

Hyperparathyroidism:

Excess parathyroid hormone secretion mobilizes calcium from the bones , resulting in a decrease in bone density , it may be primary from hyperplasia or tumour of the parathyroid glands or secondary to chronic renal failure
. generalized loss of bone density.
. subperiosteal bone resorption.
. soft tissue calcification.
.brown tumour.

Generalized increase in bone density :

1. sclerotic metastases.
2.osteopetrosis . 3 .myelosclerosis.

Alteration of the trabecular pattern & change in shape : occur in the following :

I- Paget disease:radiologically the affected bone showing thickening of the trabeculae and of the cortex leading to loss of corticomudellary differentiation & increased bone density together with enlargement of the affected bones .

II.Haemolytic anemia :

Radiological bony changes are seen in two main types ( thalassaemia & sickle cell disease ) & both show changes of marrow hyperplasia , but sickle cell disease can also showing signs of bone infarction & infection .
