===Changes to normal structure===

**Damage to periosteum:
−
***Invokes a hyperplastic reaction of the inner layer
−
***Is painful
−
***Exostoses can remodel or remain
−
**Lifting of periosteum causes new bone formation below
−
**Circumferential incision (e.g. during [[Bones - fractures|fracture]])
−
***Longitudinal bone growth results
−
***May be only on one side where periosteum is damaged
−
****Used by surgeons to treat [[Bones - developmental#Angular limb deformity|angular limb deformities]]

===Physis (Growth plate)===
−
−
*Site of many '''congenital''' or '''nutritional''' bone diseases in the growing animal
−
*'''Open''' in neonates and growing animals
−
**Chondrocyte proliferation balances cell maturation and death
−
*'''Closes and ossifies''' at maturity
−
**Regulated by androgens
−
*If growth teporarily stops -> layer of bone seals the growth plate -> moves into metaphysis when growth resumes -> forms '''Harris lines'''
