The 12 pages that link to Endochondral ossification, each with the reason it gives.

• OsteodermsCompared with: It contrasts with direct bone formation characteristic of dermal skeletal elements.

• BoneRelated: This process forms much of the skeleton in mammals and other bony vertebrates.

• OsteichthyesRelated: This process forms much of the internal skeleton in many osteichthyans.

• OsteoblastRelated: Osteoblasts lay down bone on a cartilage-derived scaffold during this process.

• Dermal boneCompared with: It contrasts with dermal bone’s development without a cartilage precursor.

• OssiconeRelated: Ossicones begin as cartilage and later become bony structures.

• Hyaline cartilageRelated: Hyaline cartilage forms the temporary template for much of the growing skeleton.

• AchondroplasiaNarrower topic: Achondroplasia chiefly disrupts this process in the growth plates of long bones.

• Epiphyseal plateRelated: It replaces plate cartilage with bone as the shaft lengthens.

• Cranial anatomyRelated: It forms much of the cranial base.

• Human skeletonBroader topic: Most bones of the limbs and trunk develop through this process.

• Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressivaRelated: Lesions commonly pass through a cartilage stage before becoming mature bone.
