The influence of open disc repositioning surgery on the internal derangement of the contralateral temporomandibular joint: a prospective study of 96 patients. Clin Oral Investig 2024; 28:487. [PMID: 39145865 DOI: 10.1007/s00784-024-05864-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2024] [Accepted: 07/29/2024] [Indexed: 08/16/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the influence of unilateral open disc repositioning surgery (ODRS) of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) on the internal derangement (ID) of the contralateral joint. METHODS Patients with bilateral ID of TMJ who underwent unilateral ODRS were enrolled and followed-up for one year. They were divided into two groups based on the contralateral disease: the anterior disc displacement with reduction (ADDWR) and without reduction (ADDWoR). Postoperative evaluation included clinical and MRI evaluation. Indices measured were unilateral intermaxillary distance (UID), visual analogue scale (VAS), disc length (DL), condylar height (CH), and disc-condyle angle (DCA). Paired t tests were used to compare the clinical and MRI indices between different time points. RESULTS Ninety-six patients were enrolled, including 47 in the ADDWR group and 49 in the ADDWoR group. One-year post-surgery, ODRS led to significant increases in MMO, DL, and CH, and decrease in VAS and DCA on the operated side (P < 0.05). In ADDWR group, UID, DL, and CH increased significantly, and VAS decreased (P < 0.05), with no significant change in DCA (P > 0.05). In ADDWoR group, clinical and MRI variables worsened slightly, except for UID, which remained unchanged (P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS ODRS is a promising method for correcting TMJ ID and may improve condition of ADDWR and decrease progress of ADDWoR at the contralateral joint. Preoperative bilateral TMJ evaluation is essential for better outcomes. CLINICAL RELEVANCE ODRS can effectively treat TMJ ID and produce adaptive changes in the contralateral ID, for which continuous monitoring of the contralateral joint is essential.

Abstract
In oral and maxillofacial surgery, the evolution of minimally invasive techniques has revolutionised the management of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. At the forefront of this advancement lies TMJ arthroscopy, a procedure that offers a precise approach to diagnosing and treating joint issues. TMJ arthroscopy is indicated in various clinical scenarios where a detailed evaluation and targeted interventions within the TMJ are required to alleviate symptoms, improve joint function, and enhance the overall quality of life of patients suffering from TMJ disorders.

Dimitroulis G. A guide for temporomandibular joint surgery using a simple surgical classification - A narrative-style review. J Craniomaxillofac Surg 2024:S1010-5182(24)00195-1. [PMID: 39019746 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcms.2024.06.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2024] [Revised: 04/09/2024] [Accepted: 06/08/2024] [Indexed: 07/19/2024] Open
Abstract
The aim of this narrative style review is to clarify the role of TMJ surgery in the management of specific TMJ disorders by introducing a simple and practical surgical classification. A decade ago, a new surgical classification was published which, like the Wilkes classification, included the five escalating degrees of joint pathology, but with more practical definitions and proposed surgical options for each of the disease categories. The classification begins with Category 1 - painful but otherwise structurally normal joints, which are largely managed nonsurgically. Categories 2 and 3 denote reducing and nonreducing disc displacement of the TMJ, respectively, with the former treated by TMJ arthrocentesis or level 1 arthroscopy and the latter best managed with disc repositioning or discopexy. Category 4 describes degenerative changes to the disc itself, where the disc cannot be salvaged and is thus removed with TMJ discectomy. Lastly, Category 5 refers to end-stage joint disease, where none of the joint components can be salvaged; both the disc and condylar head are sacrificed, and the TMJ is reconstructed with a prosthetic total joint replacement. In the decade since its publication, various studies have served to validate the usefulness of the TMJ surgical classification, and how it can be applied to better understand the role of TMJ surgery in everyday clinical practice.

Abstract
This article aims to analyze which of the main arthroscopic discopexy techniques has the best results and if there are differences between the techniques for both pain and maxillary intercuspid opening. A systematic review and meta-analysis was performed according to the PRISMA statement. An electronic search was performed with no publication date restriction in PubMed, Ovid and Embase. The PICO criteria: (P) Patients: With temporomandibular internal disorders with discopexy indication. (I) Intervention: Temporomandibular joint arthroscopic discopexy. (C) Comparison: Arthroscopic discopexy among different techniques classified as non-rigid, semi-rigid and rigid. (O) Outcomes: Impact in clinical conditions such as pain and maximum mouth opening. The inclusion criteria were Patients with temporomandibular internal disorders with discopexy indication performed with different techniques classified as non-rigid, semi-rigid and rigid. The outcomes evaluated were pain and maximum mouth opening. Case series, cohort studies, quasi-experimental studies, and randomized clinical trials with at least 3 months of follow-up were included. The exclusion criteria considered were patients with related concomitant surgeries, patients with associated neoplastic disease or connective tissue disease. A total of 1515 joints where 1400 discopexies were performed including 849 females and 204 males. The most common diagnostic was Wilkes stage III in 257 joints. For pain and oral opening, the semi-rigid technique shows the best results median (MD) 4.84 (CI 2.52-7.16; p = 0.001, I2:100%), MD -2.78 (CI -4.34, -1.21; p = 0.001, I2:99%), respectively. The rigid technique has the greatest probability for complications MD 0.14 CI 95% (0.00, -0.28). Although the semi-rigid technique showed better results, there is no statistically significant difference. However, due to the heterogeneity of the studies, the results should be interpreted with caution.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Temporomandibular joint arthroscopy (TMJA) is often performed under general anaesthesia (GA) worldwide on an inpatient basis, whereas local anaesthesia (LA) is not equally considered as the standard procedure. OBJECTIVES To compare the efficacy between LA and GA when performing TMJA. METHODS This study retrospectively reviewed a total of 182 patients in LA group and 91 patients in GA group who underwent TMJA for the management of disc displacement. Patients were divided into two groups based on type of anaesthesia used for surgery; LA group and GA group. Comparisons were made based on operative time, intubation and extubation time (for GA only), hospital stay duration, total cost and post-operative clinical and radiological outcomes. RESULTS The demographics and pre-operative clinical assessments were matched in both groups. No post-operative significant difference was found in outcomes when performing TMJA under LA compared to GA in terms of pain reduction (p = .016) and improvement in mouth opening (p = .866). The median operative time and hospital stay duration for LA group were significantly less compared to GA group (p < .001). GA group required an additional intubation and extubation time, whereas LA group patients were waived from it. TMJA for LA group was performed in the minor procedure setup, which reduced the costs for surgery (p < .001). Post-operative disc position was excellent and good with an overall success rate of 95%. CONCLUSION The use of LA performing TMJA reduces operating time, costs, hospital stay and recovery room time than GA group. Furthermore, TMJA performed under LA shared similar post-operative clinical and radiological outcomes with those performed under GA.

Abstract
This study evaluated the feasibility of simultaneous temporomandibular joint (TMJ) arthroscopy and orthognathic surgery as a new treatment strategy for anterior disc displacement without reduction (ADDwoR) patients with severe jaw deformities. Twelve ADDwoR patients with facial deformities who underwent arthroscopy and orthognathic surgery between September 2015 and December 2019 were retrospectively evaluated. Pre- and postoperative maximum incisal opening (MIO) and joint pain were recorded. Computed tomography (CT) and three-dimensional cephalometric analysis were performed at 3 (T1) and ≥6 (T2) months postoperatively. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the TMJ was performed before, ≤7 days after and ≥6 months after surgery. The lateral profile radiological findings, the symmetry of the maxilla and mandible, and the MRI measurements were compared. Anterior disc displacement did not recur, and the maximum incisal opening (MIO) increased from 27.4 mm to 32.7 mm after surgery (p < 0.05). No significant differences were found in the lateral profile, symmetry indices or condylar height via MRI between T1 and T2. Joint morphology and the position of both the maxilla and mandible remained stable during postoperative follow-up, while joint symptoms were markedly relieved and facial appearance was noticeably improved. Combined arthroscopy and orthognathic surgery is effective and recommended for ADDwoR patients with jaw deformities.

Abstract
Objective This study aimed to explain the change of disc position at different over-corrected place after arthroscopic disc repositioning and suturing surgery. Study design Patients treated with temporomandibular joint arthroscopic disc repositioning and suturing surgery were reviewed. All patients underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) before, immediately after surgery and at 2-year follow-up. The position of disc was checked and the change was compared. Results 133 patients were included in the final analysis with 203 TMJ sides. The incidence rate for anterior movement of the disc after surgery was 33.0 %. Disc repositioned between 12 and 1 o'clock showed smaller movement rate of 22.6 %, while higher movement rate of 53.6 % was seen when repositioned between 2 and 3 o'clock. Conclusions After arthroscopic disc repositioning and suturing surgery for ADD patients, the repositioned disc showed tendency to move forward. 12 to 1 o'clock was optional disc site for repositioning while excessive over-correction was not recommended.

Abstract
This study was a retrospective self-controlled study that aimed to evaluate the effect of arthroscopic discopexy on condylar height and mandibular position in adolescents with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) anterior disc displacement without reduction (ADDwoR). Patients between 10 and 20 years of age and diagnosed with bilateral TMJ ADDwoR by magnetic resonance image (MRI) were included in this study. All patients underwent a period of natural course before arthroscopic surgery and then a follow-up period postoperatively. Changes in condylar height and mandibular position were measured by MRI and X-ray radiographs. Data were analyzed by paired t-test, Pearson correlation analysis, and generalized estimating equations. This study comprised a total of 40 patients with a mean age of 14.80 years. Pearson correlation analysis showed correlations between condylar height and mandibular position changes. The condylar height change during the post-operative period was significantly higher than that during natural course period (3.57 mm, p < 0.001). The changes in mandibular position (including ANB angle, SNB angle, and Pog-Np) were significant different (all p < 0.05) between the two periods. This study found that arthroscopic discopexy can promote condylar growth and correct dentofacial deformity in adolescents with bilateral TMJ ADDwoR.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the treatment effects of a stabilisation splint (SS) with and without arthroscopic disc repositioning (ADR) on condylar bone remodelling in adolescent patients with anterior disc displacement without reduction (ADDwoR). Cone beam computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging were used to analyse condylar bone remodelling, condyle position, and disc position. Twenty-two temporomandibular joints of 14 patients who underwent ADR (age range 12-20 years; mean follow-up 12.5 ± 7.8 months) and 21 temporomandibular joints of 14 patients who did not undergo ADR (age range 13-20 years; mean follow-up 11.1 ± 5.1 months) were included. The change in bone volume (P < 0.001), rate of bone volume change (P < 0.001), and change in condyle height (P = 0.031) were significantly greater in patients with ADR than in those without ADR. The changes in posterior joint space (P = 0.013), superior joint space (P = 0.020), and ratio of condyle sagittal position (P = 0.013) were significantly greater in patients with ADR than in those without ADR. All discs in patients who underwent ADR and one disc in those who did not undergo ADR were backward repositioned. In conclusion, in adolescent patients with ADDwoR, ADR with SS therapy achieved better condyle and disc position than SS therapy alone, and also induced bone generation.

Int J Surg 2024; 110:01279778-990000000-01003. [PMID: 38241415 PMCID: PMC11020046 DOI: 10.1097/js9.0000000000001129] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2023] [Accepted: 01/09/2024] [Indexed: 01/21/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Open suturing (OSu) and Mini-screw Anchor (MsA) are two commonly used open disc repositioning surgeries for anterior disc displacement (ADD) of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). This study assesses the differences in disc position stability (DPS) and condylar bone remodeling (CBR) between these two surgical procedures in a single center. METHODS A retrospective cohort study using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans (preoperation, 1 week and 12 mo postoperation) of all patients who had open TMJ disc repositioning surgery from January 2016 to June 2021 at one center through two surgical techniques (OSu and MsA) was performed. The predictor variable was technique (OSu and MsA). Outcome variables were DPS and CBR. During follow-up, DPS was rated as good, acceptable and poor, and CBR was graded as improved, unchanged, and degenerated. Multivariate analysis was used to compare the DPS and CBR at 12 months after adjusting 5 factors including age, sex, Wilkes stage, preoperative bone status (normal, mild/moderate abnormal) and the degree of disc repositioning (normal, overcorrected, and posteriorly repositioned). Relative risk (RR) for DPS and CBR was calculated by multivariate logistic regression. RESULTS 385 patients with 583 joints were included in the study. MRIs at 12 months showed that 514 joints (93.5%) had good DPS, and 344 joints (62.5%) had improved CBR. Multivariate analysis revealed that OSu had higher DPS (RR=2.95; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.27 to 6.85) and better CBR (RR=1.58; 95%CI, 1.02 to 2.46) than MsA. Among the factors affecting DPS, females had better results than males (RR=2.63; 95%CI, 1.11 to 6.26) and overcorrected or posteriorly repositioned discs were more stable than normally-repositioned discs (RR=5.84; 95%CI, 2.58 to 13.20). The improvement in CBR decreased with age increasing (RR=0.91; 95%CI, 0.89 to 0.93). Preoperative mild/moderate abnormal bone status had a higher probability of improved CBR compared to normal preoperative bone status (RR=2.60; 95%CI, 1.76 to 3.83). CONCLUSION OSu had better DPS and CBR than MsA. Sex and the degree of disc repositioning impacted DPS, while age and preoperative bone status affected CBR.

[PMID: 37939605 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejrad.2023.111189] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2023] [Revised: 10/17/2023] [Accepted: 11/02/2023] [Indexed: 11/10/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE The objective of this study was to analyze the effect of TMJ disc position on condylar bone remodeling after arthroscopic disc repositioning surgery. METHODS Nine patients with anterior disc displacement without reduction (ADDWoR, 15 sides) who underwent arthroscopic disc repositioning surgery were included. Three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of the articular disc and the condyle in the closed-mouth position was performed using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data. Then, the CBCT and MRI images were fused and displayed together by multimodal image registration techniques. Morphological changes in the articular disc and condyle, as well as changes in their spatial relationship, were studied by comparing preoperative and 3-month postoperative CBCT-MRI fused images. RESULTS The volume and superficial area of the articular disc, as well as the area of the articular disc surface in the subarticular cavity, were significantly increased compared to that before the surgical treatment(P < 0.01). There was also a significant increase in the volume of the condyle (P < 0.001). All condyles showed bone remodeling after surgery that could be categorized as one of two types depending on the position of the articular disc, suggesting that the location of the articular disc was related to the new bone formation. CONCLUSIONS The morphology of the articular disc and condyle were significantly changed after arthroscopic disc repositioning surgery. The 3D changes in the position of the articular disc after surgery tended to have an effect on condylar bone remodeling and the location of new bone formation.

Abstract
Temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) affect a high percentage of children and adults worldwide. Surgery may be indicated in severe or recalcitrant cases. Several recent advancements in TMD and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) surgery have elevated understanding and the ability to treat affected patients. We discuss recent advances in TMD epidemiology, juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) of the TMJ, and surgical techniques and technologies. Technical advancements have been identified in TMJ arthroscopy, the treatment of TMJ subluxation and dislocation, and extended prosthetic total TMJ reconstruction (eTMJR). Overall, this review provides valuable insights into significant recent advancements in TMJ disorders and their surgical management.

Abstract
PURPOSE Open disk repositioning has been long achieving excellent functional and stability outcomes. However, still remains some relapses for whom a second open surgery is often challenging. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of arthroscopic disk reposition as an alternative surgery for unsuccessful cases of anterior disk displacement (ADD) after an initial open disk repositioning. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study included all patients who underwent secondary arthroscopy for disk repositioning of the relapsed ADD after an initial open surgery between January 2012 to June 2017. The redo arthroscopic disk repositioning and suturing procedure was the primary predictor input variable in this study. Outcome evaluation was based on both clinical (visual analog scale and maximal interincisal opening) and magnetic resonance imaging data. RESULTS Twenty-seven joints fulfilling the inclusion criteria were included. A significant improvement was detected at 24-month postoperatively compared with the baseline visual analog scale. The maximal interincisal opening showed a statistical improvement from 25.07 mm preoperatively to 38.44 mm at 24-month postoperatively. Twenty-six joints maintained a stable disk position with only 1 joint relapsed to ADD without reduction. CONCLUSION Arthroscopic disk reposition and suturing technique is a reliable and effective repeat surgery after failed initial open disk repositioning for management of ADD.

Int J Oral Maxillofac Surg 2022; 52:98-106. [PMID: 35810051 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijom.2022.06.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/17/2021] [Revised: 06/19/2022] [Accepted: 06/22/2022] [Indexed: 10/17/2022]
Abstract
The aim of this study was to assess the various outcomes of arthroscopic discopexy compared to the natural course of anterior disc displacement (ADD) longitudinally in the same patients. A retrospective review was performed of 108 patients (152 joints) who experienced the natural course of ADD for a period of time and then underwent arthroscopic discopexy. The outcome was evaluated clinically and by magnetic resonance imaging. The natural course of ADD showed significant deterioration in pain, diet, and quality of life, and also a significant reduction in inter-incisal opening (all P < 0.001), while significant improvements in all clinical parameters were observed at the final postoperative follow-up (all P < 0.001, compared to the last preoperative visit). During the natural course, there was a significant shortening of condylar height, mandibular height, and disc length, and an increase in disc displacement distance (all P < 0.001). Postoperative follow-up revealed the restoration of condylar height and mandibular height, and all discs were significantly repositioned with an increased disc length (unfolded) (all P < 0.001). Bearing in mind the assumption of a low evidence base due to bias resulting from the retrospective non-double-blinded study design and the variable duration of the natural disease course prior to surgery, this study found that the natural course of ADD led to degenerative changes in the joint structures and clinical symptoms, whereas arthroscopic discopexy led to a restoration of the bony structures and the alleviation of clinical symptoms.

Abstract
Disc displacement is a common disorder of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) that often results in progressive joint dysfunction, including clicking, arthralgia, functional limitations, osteoarthritis, and even condylar resorption. Several arthroscopic techniques have been proposed to treat anterior disc displacement. Yang's arthroscopic disc repositioning and suturing technique, described in 2012, consist in a pair of sutures inserted through the junction of the disc and the retrodiscal tissue and tied underneath the cartilage of the external auditory canal. This technique is reported to be the most stable over time, but it has 2 main disadvantages, 1) it is one of the most challenging to perform, requiring a skill TMJ arthroscopic surgeon and 2) it needs a customized suture equipment. We designed a modification to Yang's technique using a common, cheap, available and disposable suture set.

Abstract
ABSTRACT The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the effectiveness of different temporomandibular joint arthroscopic discopexy techniques.The systematic review was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) statement and an electronic search was performed using MEDLINE (PubMed), The Cochrane Library, ScienceDirect databases using a combination of the terms "discopexy," "disc recapture," "disc fixation," and "temporomandibular joint" to identify clinical trials published from 2010.In total, 493 records were screened, of which only 9 fulfilled the inclusion criteria and were included in qualitative data synthesis.The results of clinical findings evaluation showed that arthroscopic discopexy statistically significantly improved levels of pain (VAS) and maximum interincisal opening whereas magnetic resonance imaging evaluation showed disc position improvement of up to 90% to 100%.In conclusion, this review provides the evidence of the potential benefits of arthroscopic disc fixation in the treatment of patients with internal derangements : reduced pain, increased maximum interincisal opening, and improved disc position evaluated by magnetic resonance imaging, whereas disc fixation using suturing techniques seems to be the most appropriate method.

Abstract
In order to optimize patient selection for temporomandibular joint (TMJ) arthroscopic discopexy to achieve favorable outcomes, prognostic indicators impacting the results are important to analyze. This longitudinal retrospective study aimed to analyze various prognostic factors impacting surgical outcomes following arthroscopic discopexy for management of TMJ closed lock using success criteria based on pain, maximal interincisal opening, diet, and quality of life. Furthermore, a quantitative MRI assessment was performed pre- and post-operatively. Multivariate analysis was used to evaluate various prognostic variables including gender, age, side, duration of illness, Wilkes staging, parafunctional habits, splint therapy and orthodontic treatment. A total of 147 patients (201 joints) were included. The outcome was categorized as excellent (n = 154/76.61%), good (n = 34/16.91%), or poor (n = 13/6.46%) with a success rate of 93.54%. Patients aged > 30 years old (p = 0.048), longer duration of illness (12–24 months: p = 0.034) and (> 24 months: p = 0.022), and patients with Wilkes stage IV (p = 0.002) were all significantly more likely to be in the poor outcome group. Finally, orthodontic treatment showed a significant association with excellent outcomes (p = 0.015). Age, duration of illness, Wilkes staging, and orthodontic treatment are considered significant prognostic factors that can predict the outcomes following the arthroscopic discopexy for management of TMJ closed lock.
