===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'''
