Topic: Endosteum


In the News (Thu 31 Dec 09)

  
  Asian Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons
After a latency period of 3 days, bone lengthening was started at a rate of 1 mm per day for 10 days, after which the newly formed bone was allowed to consolidate for 6 weeks with the device serving as an external fixator.
It could be stated that the periosteum and endosteum are probably not indispensable or particularly important for adequate callus formation.
However the instability of the segment caused by the slow maturation and remodelling of the newly formed bone in groups P and E should be noted, and a longer consolidation period is recommended to avoid instability of the regenerated segment in such cases.

 Bone Tissue
A thinner layer of connective tissue, known as the endosteum, surrounds the bone marrow spaces and trabeculae of spongy bone.
The periosteum and endosteum are a source of new bone-forming cells (osteoprogenitor cells) and are described as possessing osteogenic potential.
The flat bones or "membrane" bones of the skull are composed in a sandwich-like fashion of an outer layer of compact bone (outer table), a middle layer of spongy bone (diploe), and an inner layer of compact bone (inner table).

 Tendon threader for endosteal ligament mounting - Patent 5266075
A tendon threader and process for its use for positioning and endosteally mounting a tendon within the endosteum of a closed tunnel end of a straight ligament tunnel that has been formed in a patient's knee in an arthroscopic surgical procedure for replacement of a cruciate ligament.
The straight ligament tunnel 33 is shown formed from an opening 30 at the tibial tuberosity of the proximal tibia 31, passing through the anterior cruciate ligament points of origin in the knee joint and into the distal femur 32, and terminates in the femur endosteum at 34.
Prior to which staple mounting, a desired tensile force is applied to the tendon 17 that is anchored by the pin 21 in the femur endosteum.

 Introduction
The extreme hardness of bone is attributed to a complex mineral substance, largely composed of calcium, phosphate, and carbonate, distributed throughout a soft organic matrix.
The surfaces of bone are covered with layers of connective tissue which are called periosteum and endosteum.
Periosteum is found on the external surfaces and endosteum is found on the internal surfaces of bone.

For this reason, special attention is given to the periosteum and endosteum during surgery.
The endosteum has the same components as the periosteum and nearly the same structure, but it is considerably thinner, and does not have two layers as the periosteum does.
The periosteum and endosteum around the fracture respond with intense proliferation of their fibroblasts and other undifferentiated cells which form a cellular tissue surrounding the fracture, and penetrate between the extremities of the fractured bone.

 eMedicine - Histology of Bone : Article by Yi Jun Yang, MD, PhD
In flat bones, compact bone is formed at both the internal and external surfaces due to a marked predominance of bone deposition over bone resorption, while a spongy pattern remains in the central portion.
The endosteum and periosteum are formed from layers of connective tissue that are not undergoing ossification.
The endosteum is composed of osteoprogenitor cells and only a small amount of connective tissue, covering the surface of bone trabeculae and the medullary surface of cortical bone and Haversian canals.

Basing on the literature data analysis, modern notions concerning endosteum structure, its connections with the bone and bone marrow are presented.
Participation of the endosteum in processes of osteogenesis and resorption, as well as its changes with ageing are discussed.
The role of LCS as a component of the microcirculatory bed of the lamellar bone is discussed.

(Periosteum is essentially the bone’s epimysium —deep fascia of the bone.) Endosteum is the connective tissue that lines the surface of bony spicules.
(Endosteum of the vertebra lines the trabecular spongy bone.
Likewise, the endosteum of the skull line the diploe.) The brain has many ridges, which are analogous to the ventral median fissure of the spinal cord.

 Titanium implants in rabbit femur
In the cortical bone, the presence of a necrotic area was observed which was later remodelled, and also an intense proliferation of endosteum and periosteum in the regions next to the implant, resulting in a thickening of the cortical bone surface close to the implant.
In several specimens, such neoformation was very advanced, with apposition of neoformed bone and a consequent increase in the thickness of the cortical bone in contact with the implant.
In this experiment, the whole necrotic area observed in the cortical bone facing the implant seems to remain initially intact, perhaps confirming the idea that this bone sequestrum works as a structure that initially maintains the implant in position and then works as a base for neoformed bone tissue (Roberts, 1988; Roberts et al., 1989).

A thin layer of cell-rich connective tissue, the endosteum, lines the surface of the bone facing the marrow cavity.
Immediately beneath the periosteum and endosteum a few lamella are found which run parallel to the inner and outer surfaces of the bone.
Vessels in Volkmann's canals communicate with vessels in the Haversian canals on the one hand and vessels in the endosteum on the other.

Identify the: endosteum, periosteum, inner and outer circumferential lamellae, interstitial lamellae, and the concentric lamellae of Haversian systems (osteons) (HA2).
The endosteum is found on the marrow side of the compact bone and the periosteum is on the outside.
The vessels within the Volkmann’s canal forms several branches that travel longitudinally through the bone in Haversian canals.
