Early foetal development of the articular disc in the human temporomandibular joint.
نویسندگان
چکیده
In foetuses of 9 and 10 weeks the articular disc presents a more cellular structure with bands of connective tissue fibres. It is connected with the articular capsule and lateral pterygoid muscle. During weeks 11 and 12 there is an increase in collagenous fibres and fusiform cells are located mainly close to the surface of the disc.

Histochemistry of the foetal human temporomandibular joint articular disc.
The human temporomandibular joint (TMJ) develops from mesenchymal cells that form condensations appearing as condylar and temporal blastema which give rise to the respective anterior and posterior regions of the TMJ articular disc. Previous reports have shown the foetal disc to be avascular, with a high content of organized collagen fibres and a lesser content of elastic fibres. In this study, ...

The present study examined the ultrastructural features of the articular discs of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) of nine human fetuses aging from 21 to 28 weeks. The specimen of the fetal articular discs was sectioned frontally and sagitally and examined under the scanning electron-microscope. The ultrastructural survey of the architecture of the articular disc revealed three bands composed ...

Background: The destruction of articular cartilage is the major cause of articular problems. The articular cartilage has little repair postertial due to lack of perichondrium and direct blood circulation. It is, therefore important to consider this phenomena in surgical treatments. One of the articular cartilage reconstructive surgeries is using Osteo-Chondral graft. The main purpose of this re...

Adult articular cartilage (AC) has a well described multizonal collagen structure. Knowledge of foetal AC organisation and development may provide a prototype for cartilage repair strategies, and improve understanding of structural changes in developmental diseases such as osteochondrosis (OC). The objective of this study was to describe normal development of the spatial architecture of the col...

Introduction: Internal derangement (ID) of TMJ is the most common type of temporomandibular disorders after muscle disorders and includes all disorders related to incoordination and dislocation of disc and condyle. Anterior disc displacement without reduction or closed lock will happen if the disc or condyle displaces severely or if the disc traps in the space in front of the condyle accompanie...
