PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Wolff’s Law is the idea that natural healthy bones will adapt and change to adapt to the stress that it is subjected to. For example, if the bones are subjected to heavier and heavier loads, they will naturally reconstruct themselves to accommodate that weight. This is how bones typically respond to stress.

Detailed explanation-2: -Every time stress is applied to our bones, they remodel themselves to adapt to the stress. For example, the bones in a tennis player’s dominant arm may be up to 20% thicker than the bones in their non-dominant arm. This effect is called Wolff’s Law.

Detailed explanation-3: -Bone tissue forms and is remodeled in response to the mechanical forces that it experiences, a phenomenon described by Wolff’s Law. Mechanically induced formation and adaptation of bone tissue is mediated by bone cells that sense and respond to local mechanical cues.

Detailed explanation-4: -Wolff’s Law states that a healthy individual will adapt to the loads that their body is placed under. If the loading on a bone increases, the bone will remodel itself to be stronger in order to support that load.

Detailed explanation-5: -According to Wolff’s law, bones in the living body will adapt to mechanical loads under which they are placed. If loads on a particular bone increase, the bone will remodel to become thicker and stronger to resist the loads. The inverse is also true; if loads on a bone decrease, the bone will become thinner and weaker.
