===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'''
