Growth Plate

Aka: Growth Plate, Ossification Center, Epiphyseal Line, Epiphyseal Plate, Bone Collar, Periosteal Bud, Long Bone Growth, Bone Development

  2. Physiology: Development
    1. Hyaline Cartilage
      1. Hyaline cartilage is the initial structure or mold into which bone forms
    2. Bone Collar
      1. Forms along the outer margin of the bone (at future diaphysis)
    3. Primary Ossification Center
      1. Hyaline cartilage deteriorates and cavitates centrally forming a hyaline cavity
    4. Medullary (central) spongy bone formation
      1. Spongy bone forms centrally from primary Ossification Center
    5. Periosteal Bud
      1. Vascular connective tissue from the perichondrium (outer margin) invades central hyaline cavity
      2. Forms future blood supply to Medullary cavity
    6. Medullary cavity
      1. Bony cavity replaces prior hyaline cartilage cavity
    7. Secondary Ossification Center
      1. Spongy bone forms from secondary Ossification Center (at each long bone end)
      2. Develops into epiphyseal bone
    8. Epiphyseal Plate cartilage (epiphysis or Growth Plate)
      1. Cartilage remains between bone formed from primary (central) and secondary (epiphyseal) Ossification Centers
      2. Remaining cartilage functions as a Growth Plate for Long Bone Growth
    9. Articular cartilage
      1. Hyaline cartilage remains at the long bone ends at joint margins
      2. All other hyaline cartilage is replaced by bone, aside from at the epiphysis
  3. Anatomy: Layers
    1. Articular cartilage
    2. Epiphysis (rounded bone end)
    3. Epiphyseal Plate or Growth Plate
      1. Resting Zone of hyaline cartilage
      2. Proliferating Zone of hyaline cartilage
      3. Hypertrophic Zone of hyaline cartilage
      4. Calcified Zone of hyaline cartilage
    4. Metaphysis
    5. Diaphysis

Bone Development (C0005939)

Definition (GO) The process whose specific outcome is the progression of bone over time, from its formation to the mature structure. Bone is the hard skeletal connective tissue consisting of both mineral and cellular components. [GOC:dph]
Definition (MSH) The growth and development of bones from fetus to adult. It includes two principal mechanisms of bone growth: growth in length of long bones at the epiphyseal cartilages and growth in thickness by depositing new bone (OSTEOGENESIS) with the actions of OSTEOBLASTS and OSTEOCLASTS.
Definition (CSP) growth and development of bones from fetus to adult; includes two principal mechanisms of bone growth, which are growth in length of long bones at the epiphyseal cartilages, and growth in thickness by depositing new bone; see also OSTEOGENESIS.
