Left stifle/tibia radiographs madeIncreased mineral opacity in tibial medullary cavityDifferential diagnoses:– Bone infarct– Indolent osteomyelitis– Panosteitis

Causes of Bone Infarction
Trauma (surgery e.g.-THR)IdiopathicSmall breed terrier/Sheltie dogsHumans—Hepatic lipidosis, Sickle cell disease, chronic steroid administration, pancreatitis

Bone Infarction
Time course– Initial signs non-specific, visible within a few
months (3-6 mos)—loss of trabeculae, smooth periosteal rxn, irregular increase in opacity of medulla
– More chronic—pathognomonic changes recognizable at 1 year—irregular, serpiginous, radiopaque lines in medullary cavity
– “Smoke in the chimney”

Bone Infarction
Prevalence– Uncommon, assc with THR– 14% of femurs with femoral prostheses
(15/110) had infarcts in 2000 study– 8/53 (15%) had uncemented THR– 7/57 (12%) had cemented THR

Histopathology—what’s really going on in there?
Ischemic osteonecrosisCenter (radiolucent)—dead marrow and dead osteocytes, empty lacunaePeriphery (radiopaque)—dystrophic mineralizationPeriosteal reaction—woven boneDifferent from endosteal reaction, which is live bone proliferation!

Pathophysiology
Trauma to nutrient arteryNutrient artery relatively more proximal in dogs than humanstrauma during THRYounger dogs may be more affected because nutrient artery provides most of blood flow (older dogs use more periosteal vessels)No clinical signs, but possibility of malignant transformation

Malignant Transformation
Humans—osteosarcoma, fibrosarcoma associated with infarcted sites1999 report of dog with bilateral femoral infarcts—OSA developed unilaterally 5 yrs post-opTrack patients especially well if they develop infarcts!
