osteofito
Sign in to saveAlso known as bone spurs
Osteophytes are exostoses (bony projections) that form along joint margins. They are distinct from enthesophytes, which are bony projections that form at the attachment of a tendon or ligament. Osteophytes are not always distinguished from exostoses in any definite way, although in many cases there are a number of differences. Osteophytes are typically intra-articular (within the joint capsule).

Los osteofitos son excrecencias óseas, hiperostosis en el sitio de anclaje de las fibras de Sharpey. Provocan osteoartrosis (espondilosis deformante). Son protuberancias óseas no maduras en las vértebras con forma de espuelas, que reflejan la presencia de una enfermedad degenerativa y calcificación ósea. Se caracterizan por poseer una configuración triangular, estar bien definidos, nacen unos mm por arriba de la unión (del borde del cuerpo vertebral), inicialmente tienen una trayectoria horizontal y posteriormente vertical. Relacionados en muchos casos con las carillas articulares de las vértebras y por ello relacionados con procesos degenerativos de la columna.También es signo de artrosis, presentándose como excrecencias óseas marginales. Los osteofitos, según Sharley Mark, son alteraciones óseas producidas por golpes a la altura de las vértebras lumbares. Estas vértebras son las que reciben la mayor presión y son la porción de la espalda que soporta peso. Las vértebras lumbares son las que permiten movimientos tales como flexión y extensión y algunas flexiones laterales.
