Demodectic Mange in Dogs. Save to mypetMD. Mange (demodicosis) is an inflammatory disease in dogs caused by various types of the Demodex mite. When the number of mites inhabiting the hair follicles and skin of the dog become exorbitant, it can lead to skin lesions, genetic disorders, problems with the immune system and hair loss (alopecia).
Osteoclasts are found on top of or next to existing bone tissue, sometimes in close proximity to osteoblasts. There is on-going race between the two cell types; osteoblasts make bone tissue while osteoclasts reabsorb it.
An osteoid osteoma is a benign bone tumor that arises from osteoblasts and was originally thought to be a smaller version of an osteoblastoma. Osteoid osteomas tend to be less than 1.5 cm in size. The tumor can be in any bone in the body but are most common in long bones, such as the femur and tibia.
