Bone Remodeling Site: Cancellous and Endosteal Surfaces of Long Bones

Bone remodeling—the coupled resorption by osteoclasts and formation by osteoblasts—occurs predominantly on the cancellous (trabecular) and endosteal surfaces of long bones. This dynamic process maintains skeletal strength, repairs microdamage, and regulates calcium homeostasis.
