Marrow fat may distribute the energy of impact loading throughout subchondral bone
Most students of articular mechanics consider impact loads to be compressive forces that are borne by an intraosseous, trabecular scaffold. The possible role of marrow fat, which comprises about 75% of the structure, is generally ignored, and the potential contribution of type 1 collagen, the prototypic tensile protein, is not considered. Here, I question the evidence underlying these omissions...
متن کاملThe Role of Bone Marrow Aspiration and Bone Marrow Biopsy in Diagnosis of Bone Marrow Metastases
Background: Bone marrow is the site of many malignant disorders and it is one of the common places for solid tumors to metastasize. Examination of the bone marrow aspirate and biopsy is a routine procedure performed for assessment of various conditions such as cytopenias, hematologic neoplasms, nonmalignant disorders and metastatic neoplasms. Methods: The patients were referred to the Hema...
متن کاملMeniscal extrusion predicts increases in subchondral bone marrow lesions and bone cysts and expansion of subchondral bone in osteoarthritic knees.
OBJECTIVES Meniscal extrusion is often present in knees with OA, and has been associated with cartilage changes. It is unknown whether meniscal extrusion is related to subchondral bone. The aim of the study was to examine the relationship between meniscal extrusion and knee cartilage and subchondral bone, and also changes in these structures over 2 years in a cohort with mild to moderate knee O...
متن کاملSubchondral bone marrow lesions are highly associated with, and predict subchondral bone attrition longitudinally: the MOST study.
OBJECTIVE Subchondral bone attrition (SBA) is defined as flattening or depression of the osseous articular surface. The causes of attrition are unknown, but remodeling processes due to chronic overload that are reflected as bone marrow edema-like lesions (BMLs) on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) might predispose the subchondral bone to subsequent attrition. The aim of this study was to evaluat...
متن کاملSubchondral bone marrow lesions associated with knee osteoarthritis.
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent condition typically measured by the level of joint space thinning. However, it has been shown that the degree of joint space narrowing correlates poorly with the incidence and magnitude of knee pain. A review of recent and past literature suggests that chronic bone marrow edema (BME) or bone marrow lesions may be linked to pain, the progression of cartila...
