Chondroblastoma is a benign cancer arising in the cartilage of the long-bone growth plates in children and young adults. From:Journal of Genetics and Genomics,2018 About this page Set alert Chapters and Articles You might find these chapters and articles relevant to this topic. ...
The second reason to measure bone mass in children is to improve our understanding of the childhood antecedents of a condition that happens to manifest in elderly subjects: osteoporosis. Since skeletal mass in adulthood is the result of both the amount of bone gained during growth and its subsequ...
composition of the present invention comprising bamboo as an effective ingredient is effective for promoting the growth of the growth plates and the long bones, it is effective for promoting the growth and the formation of skeletal frame in infants, children and teenagers during their growth period...
The two growth plates of the tibia were chosen for analysis. In the 4-wk-old rat, the proximal tibial growth plate and is one of the fastest growing in the animal, and it is growing at approximately three times the rate of the distal tibial growth plate (34). In addition, the ...
This paper highlights the importance of the mechanical environment, growth factors, scaffolds and osteogenic cells for successful bone healing and is used for planning the management of fractures. PubMed Google Scholar Andrzejowski, P. & Giannoudis, P. V. The ‘diamond concept’ for long bone ...
The effects of electrical stimulation therapy on epiphyseal growth plates are not known, so that use of electrical stimulation therapy in children, who lack skeletal maturity, should be closely monitored. Aetna's policy on non-spinal electrical stimulation is supported by Medicare policy, which allows...
usually presents during the adolescent growth spurt. Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is the most common pediatric musculoskeletal disorder, occurring in ~3% of school age children, >29 million children worldwide4(Fig.2). Untreated, progressive AIS is associated with restrictive lung disease, pai...
tdTomato to GFP protein expression. We found that Prx1Cre+GFP cells were very rare in skeletal muscle, but widely distributed in bone cells, including in hypertrophic chondrocytes in growth plates, mesenchymal/osteoblastic cells on metaphyseal bone surfaces, and a relatively small fraction of ...
The cause of congenital cholesteatoma is considered to be lack of regression and continued growth of the epidermoid formation. The differential diagnosis of a white mass within or medial to the tympanic membrane also includes congenital cholesteatoma of the petrous apex extending to the middle ear, ...
[29,103]. On histopathologic examination, osteoid volume andosteoclastnumber are considerably increased in affected marmosets compared with unaffected animals, andgrowth plateshave cellular disorganization with a widened zone of hypertrophy due to an increased number of hypertrophicchondrocytes(Fig. 14.2B)...
