Temporomandibular joint capsule prolapse: a technique of repair using autograft cartilage.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Loss of bony integrity of the temporomandibular joint may result in prolapse of the joint capsule into the external auditory canal. This in turn gives rise to arthralgia, trismus and earache and a risk of septic arthritis. We describe a technique of repair which is simple, uses autologous tissue and has an acceptable cosmetic and functional result.

Mosaicplasty Using Grafts From the Upper Tibiofibular Joint
Autologous mosaicplasty has been widely used for the treatment of focal, full-thickness, articular cartilage lesions of the knee and ankle joints. Commonly, the autografts are harvested from non-weight-bearing areas of the knee joint, leading to associated donor-site morbidity and representing a considerable disadvantage. This Technical Note presents a mosaicplasty procedure for harvesting auto...
متن کاملAll-inside Arthroscopic Meniscal Repair Technique Using a Midbody Accessory Portal
Treatment of symptomatic meniscal tears continues to evolve as we improve our understanding of the biomechanical role of the meniscus and its long-term importance to the health of the knee joint. Suture repair of meniscal tears is challenging, yet the incidence of repairs among our colleagues continues to rise as we aim to preserve meniscal tissue. Many elements of performing a repair are tedio...
متن کاملUsing Xenogenic (Calf Foetal) Osteochondral Transplantation for Articular Cartilage Defect in Rabbit Model
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...
متن کاملQualitative Evaluation of Experimental Oa Lesions in the Dog Knee Joint
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease characterized by progressive fibrillation and erosion of the cartilage tissue, sclerosis of the subchondral bone, osteophyte production at the joint margins, moderate synovitis and fibrosis of the joint capsule [15, 18, 31]. OA affects more than 20% of dogs older than one year and a post-mortem study on 2000 dogs estimated cartilage damage was...
متن کاملExperimental Study on Protective Role of NSAID on Articular Cartilage Destruction in Septic Arthritis
Background: Surgical drainage and antibiotic therapy are the cornerstones of treatment protocols in septic arthritis; however, in some circumstances, the diagnosis and initiation of treatment may be retarded by slow disease progression or the time when the patient’s condition precludes early surgery. Therefore, it is beneficial to find ways to reduce the amount of articular injury. This study a...
