We classified the location and extent of the lesion in bone on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with reference to the growth plate and joint margin into five subtypes. This classification served as a guide for
These include diseases that result in epiphyseal dysplasia or dysgenesis, often together with other widespread skeletal defects such as delayed growth plate closure, long bone curvature and dwarfism. 6. Normal skeletal immaturity – endochondral ossification occurs from the centre of epiphyses and ap...
MRI at 7.0 T is highly sensitive to the early pathological changes of the epiphysis, epiphyseal plate, and metaphyseal end, which can improve imaging positive rate of KBD and decrease the rate of missed diagnosis. This imaging modality can be used for research on early joint lesions and fo...
Growth plate abnormalities in Mgp +/56G>T mice We next examined the growth plate phenotypes in Mgp+/56G>T mice. We performed von Kossa and safranin O (VKSO; stains mineralized matrices and proteoglycans) staining of the undecalcified lumbar vertebral sections of the control and Mgp+/56G>T...
Which of the following is described in a child's long-bone growth plate made of hyaline cartilage? A. Cartilaginous B. Fibrous C. Synovial D. Epiphyseal disk E. Suture F. SymphysisWhich of the following joint structures is h...
A thorough knowledge of functional growth plate anatomy and physiology is essential to proper management of epiphyseal foot and ankle injuries. The ability to classify foot and ankle fractures according to the Salter-Harris anatomic and radiographic classification provides useful prognostic information that...
Histologically, DEH pre- sents with a thick disorganized cartilage cap, whereas osteochondromas present with organized cartilage re- sembling the normal growth plate [4, 12]. Parosteoal osteosarcoma and DEH can also be some- times difficult to differentiate, particularly in the early stages and ...
