Total questions: 20
Worksheet time: 10mins
Complication of wound healing due to excessive collagen deposition is
Dehiscence
Ulceration
Hypertrophic scar
Keloid
Wound dehiscence is caused mainly by
Excess collagen synthesis
Increased angiogenesis
Inadequate scar formation
Excess epithelialization
Ulceration in wound healing is commonly due to
Poor vascular supply
Excess growth factors
Increased collagen
Hyperplasia
Hypertrophic scars differ from keloids in that hypertrophic scars
Extend beyond wound margins
Regress with time
Have no collagen
Occur only in ear lobes
Most important growth factor for fibroblast migration and proliferation is
EGF
PDGF
VEGF
FGF
Growth factor responsible for angiogenesis in wound healing is
EGF
TGF-β
VEGF
IL-1
TGF-β primarily promotes
Inflammation
Collagen synthesis and fibrosis
Epithelialization only
Neutrophil chemotaxis
EGF mainly stimulates
Collagen degradation
Endothelial cell apoptosis
Epithelial cell proliferation
Neutrophil adhesion
FGF is involved mainly in
Angiogenesis and fibroblast proliferation
Complement activation
Platelet aggregation
Apoptosis
Chemotaxis refers to
Random leukocyte movement
Movement along chemical gradient
Passive transport of cells
Cell proliferation
Most potent chemotactic factor for neutrophils is
C3a
IL-1
C5a
Histamine
Bacterial products causing chemotaxis include
Endotoxins
Exotoxins
N-formyl methionyl peptides
Teichoic acid
Leukotriene responsible for chemotaxis is
LTC4
LTD4
LTB4
PGE2
Mechanism of leukocyte movement during chemotaxis involves
Actin polymerization
Microtubule breakdown
Cell swelling
Nuclear fragmentation
Fracture healing by primary union occurs when
There is infection
There is wide gap between fragments
Fragments are closely apposed and immobilized
There is poor blood supply
Secondary fracture healing is characterized by
No callus formation
Abundant callus formation
Absence of inflammation
Direct osteonal healing
Soft callus is composed mainly of
Bone only
Cartilage and fibrous tissue
Mineralized bone
Fatty tissue
Hard callus formation involves
Cartilage deposition only
Endochondral ossification
Intramembranous ossification only
No ossification
Final stage of fracture healing is
Inflammation
Callus formation
Remodeling
Angiogenesis
Non-union of fracture occurs due to
Good blood supply
Early mobilization
Infection and inadequate immobilization
Young age
