| Popis: | Arthrographic examinations were performed for 40 joints of 39 patients with internal derangement of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) to analyse disc movement in relation to clinical signs and symptoms in each individual. The inconsistency between the arthrographic and clinical findings was often associated with soft tissue derangements, such as perforation of the articular disc and adhesion of the capsula.Therefore arthrographic examination may be indispensable to elucidate the pathologic conditions more clearly in those cases in which soft tissue derangements of TMJ are suspected or the primary treatment proved to be unsuccessful. |
