Session 19 - Degenerative Arthritis,Osteoporosis and Spondylosis
• Miscellaneous-Paget disease(disrupts the normal cycle of bone renewal, causing bones to become
weakened and possibly deformed. )
Pathogenesis
• Progressive destruction and loss of
articular cartilage with periarticular
bone response lead to exposure of
subchondral bone which become
sclerotic(stiff), with increase blood
vascularity and cyst formation.
Pathogenesis
Inflammaging is: the
state of low-grade,
sterile chronic
inflammation that
develops with age
Activity :Brainstorming
Pharmacotherapy
• Paracetamol oral 1gm 6-8hourly
Non pharmacotherapy • Non Steroid Anti-inflammatory
• Provision of Education Drug like Ibuprofen
• Lose weight • Hyaluronic injection-injection
• Exercise each daily for 3-5 week to rubricate joints
for easier mvt
Treatment cont…
Indicated when there is failure
of conservative
• Osteotomy
• Joint replacement
• Total joint replacement
Key points
• Septic arthritis is the inflammation of a synovial membrane
with purulent effusion into joint capsule due to infection.
• Degenerative arthritis is the degenerative disease of synovial
joint characterized by focal loss of articular hyaline cartilage
with proliferation of new bone and remodeling joint contour.
• Both, Septic arthritis and degenerative arthritis can be
managed conservatively or surgically
Evaluation
• Mention three (3) clinical presentation of a patient with septic
arthritis
• Mention four (4) complications of septic arthritis.
• Mention four investigation you can order to the patient
degenerative arthritis

Osteoporosis
Learning objectives
By the end of this session, student are expected to be able to:
• Define Osteoporosis
• Describe aetiopathology of Osteoporosis
• Describe the management of Osteoporosis
Activity:Brainstorming
• What is Osteoporosis?
Definition
• Osteoporosis is a common metabolic bone disease
characterized by;
o Reduced bone mass
o Micro architectural deterioration of bone tissue
o An increased risk of fragility fracture
Epidemiology
• One in three women over 50 years suffer from osteoporosis
• One in five men over 50 years suffer from osteoporosis
• 15% - 30% men and 30%-50 women suffer fractures related
to osteoporosis in their life time.
Causes Primary Osteoporosis
Post menopausal osteoporosis
• Caused by a lack of estrogens, which helps to regulate the
incorporation of calcium into bone in women.
• Lack of estrogen increased bone resorption.
• Hyperparathyroidism
• Paget's Disease
• Osteomalacia(bone softening” in adults that is usually due to prolonged deficiency of
vitamin D.)
• Osteogenesis Imperfecta
• Multiple Myeloma
• Secondary tumours
Investigation
• Complete blood Count(has decreased circulating erythrocytes and lymphocytes due do
dysfunction of bone marrow)
