Endosteal growths

Endosteal growths

Endosteal growths are multiple foci of osteogenesis (bone tissue formation) in the medullary cavity of a long tubular bone. They occur in chronic osteomyelitis as a result of metaplasia of granulation tissue into osteoid tissue.

With chronic inflammation of the bone marrow (osteomyelitis), granulation tissue grows in the medullary canal of the affected bone. This granulation tissue subsequently undergoes metaplasia - it turns into osteoid tissue, from which new bone is formed.

Thus, endosteal growths are multiple areas of newly formed bone tissue in the medullary canal, resulting from chronic granulating inflammation (osteomyelitis). Their appearance is associated with metaplasia of granulation tissue into osteoid tissue.

Endosteal growths are multiple foci of osteogenesis that arise in the bone marrow cavity of long tubular bones in chronic osteomyelitis. They are formed as a result of metaplasia of granulation tissue, which fills the bone marrow cavity, into osteoid tissue.

Endosteal lesions are the result of chronic inflammation of the bone, which can be caused by various causes such as infections, trauma, tumors and other diseases. Inflammation causes the destruction of bone tissue and the formation of granulation tissue. If granulation tissue does not heal properly, it can develop into endosteal growths.

With endosteal growths, the medullary cavity is filled with osteoid tissues, which can be hard and brittle. This can lead to impaired bone function and reduced bone strength. In addition, endosteal growths can cause bone pain and limit mobility.

To treat endosteal growths, it is necessary to treat the underlying disease that caused the inflammation of the bone. Surgical removal of endosteal lesions may also be required. In some cases, medications and physical therapy may be necessary to improve bone health.

In general, endosteal growths are a serious disease that requires timely treatment. If you suffer from this condition, consult your doctor for treatment recommendations.
