Disease
Abnormal disturbacne of the function or structure of the human bidy as a result of some type of injury
Pathology
Science of the cause and effects of diseases
Mortality rate
number of deaths caused by a particular disease averaged over a population
TNM
tumor size - nodes - metastases
Lesions
disease that results in new, abnormal growth
Traumatic
result from mechanical forces such as twisting or crushing or effects of ionizing radiation
Symptoms
Subjective, patients perception of the disease
Hypertrophy
Increase in cell size
Life expectancy
mean number of years remaining for an individual or a group of people at a given age
Degenerative
caused by deterioration of the body
Benign neoplasm
non-cancerous
Sequelae
a condition which is the consequence of a previous disease or injury
How many bones in the body?
206 bones 126 appendicular 80 axial
Osteoblasts
bone forming cells that line the medullary canal
Compact bone
cortical bones; forms the outer layer of all bones
Hyperplasia
Increase in the number of cells in a tissue
Cancellous bone
spongy bones; forms the inner layer of all bones. Does not contain osteons
Congenital
present at birth resulting from genetic or environmental factors
Fibrous joints
synarthrodial immovable sutures of the skull
idiopathic
No causative factor can be identified
Osteocytes
mature bone cells, a balance between osteoclast and osteoblasts
Pathogenesis
Development of disease
Nosocomial
Hospital acquired infection
Syndrome
Group of sign and symptoms that characterize a specific abnormal disturbance
Dysplasia
Abnormal changes in mature cells
Atrophy
decrease on cell size
Hereditary
developmental disorder genetically transmitted from either parent to child through abnormalities of individual genes and chromosomes
Cartilaginous joints
amphiarthrodial semi movable intervertebral joints
Lymphatic spread
spread by the way of the lymphatic system
Invasion
direct extension and penetration by tumor cells into neighboring tissues
iatrogenic
Disease caused by treatment
Joint types
fibrous, cartilaginous, synovial
Synovial
diarthrodial freely movable Knee
Hematogenous spread
spread by way of the bloodstream
Metastatic spread
spread of cancer cells
Inflammatory
results from the bodies reaction to a localized injurious agent. Caused by inflammation can be acute or chronic
Malignant neoplasm
Cancerous
Metabolic
disease or disorders that disrupt normal metabolism
Acute
Sudden onset and last for a short period of time
Neoplastic
conditions that cause a tumor or growth- both benign and malignant
Sign
Objective, can only be detected by physician or during the exam
Etiology
Study of the cause of a disease
Syndrome
Group of signs and symptoms that characterize a specific abnormal disturbance
Manifestation
Observable changes that result from cellular changes in a disease process
Functions of bones
body support, protection, movement, blood cell production
Osteoclasts
cells that break down bone to enlarge the medullary canal to allow for new bone growth
Skeletal congenital disorders
- osteogenesis imperfecta - achondroplasia - osteoporosis
Metaplasia
conversion of once cell type into another cell type that is not normal for that tissue
Chronic
Manifest slowly and last a long time
Morbidity rate
incidence of sickness sufficient to interfere with an individuals normal daily routine
