  • “A Little Foot Note” a Pediatric Podiatry and Ankle Course
    “A Little Foot Note” A Pediatric Podiatry and Ankle Course The foot is one of the more complicated parts of the body due to the ligaments, muscles, blood vessels, nerves and 26 bones. Abnormal pressure can cause deformities because the foot is so soft and pliable. According to DuPage Podiatry Medical Group, podiatrists consider the first year of life to be the most important. Bone formation (osteogenesis) begins during the prenatal development of the fetus. Week 6 of gestation; Week 8 of pregnancy o The arms and legs have grown longer, and foot and hand areas can be distinguished. o The hands and feet have fingers and toes (digits), but may still be webbed. This growth continues throughout adulthood to approximately 18-23 years of age. Infants and children have softer bones because they have not yet ossified. Ossification is when cartilage is synthesized into bone. There are two ways osteogenesis occurs, and both types form by replacing existing cartilage: 1. Intramembranous Ossification: Osteoblasts specialized cells in bone tissue that deposit calcium into the protein matrix of the bone (collagen). 2. Endochondral Ossification: Osteoclasts dissolve calcium previously stored away in bone and carry it to tissue when it’s needed. 1 One third of a bone’s components are collagen, which is a flexible, gelatin- like matrix. Bones formed during intramembranous period are called membranous bones, or dermal bone. These formations usually occur in bones such as cranial bones. Bones formed during the endochondral period are called cartilage bone, as in the formation of the long bones. Periosteal is the formation of successive thin layers of bone by osteoblasts between the underlying bone or cartilage.
