Osteon channel

The osteon canal (canalis osteoni) is a narrow channel that runs through the bone and provides its strength and stability. It is formed during bone development and is one of the main elements of its structure.

The osteon canal consists of two parts: the Haversian tubule and the dentinal tubule. The Haversian tubule is a narrow cavity that runs through the center of the bone. It contains blood vessels and nerves that provide nutrition and nerve conduction to the bone. The dentinal tubule is a wider cavity that surrounds the Haversian tubule. It provides bone strength and stability and protection from damage.

Osteon canals are present in various human bones, including the femur, humerus, pelvis, cranium, and others. They play an important role in maintaining bone health and function. However, if the osteon channels are damaged or closed, it can lead to various bone diseases such as osteoporosis, osteomyelitis and others.

To prevent bone diseases and maintain bone health, it is recommended to monitor your diet, engage in physical activity and undergo regular medical examinations. It is also important to avoid injuries and damage to bones, and if treatment is necessary, use only professional methods.

Thus, the osteon canal is an important element of the bone structure, which ensures its strength, stability and function. Its damage or closure can lead to serious bone diseases, so it is important to monitor its condition and take preventative and treatment measures.



The osteon canal or Haversian canals are special anatomical structures in the bone that serve to transmit synovial fluid during movements of the joint or other tissues and organs.

The name of the channel comes from the Latin "osteon" - "bone", which accurately describes its function. Guyer's canals divide the osteochondral components into many tissue structures called osteons and provide continuity to the bone mass. They also perform the function of heat removal and dissipation.

Research has revealed that human bones contain about 250,000
