Q

Describe the normal position for the disc in an MRI

A

Observed from the sagittal plane

  • Relative to the superior aspect of the condyle the boarder between the low and high signals of the disc is located between the 11:30 and 12:30 positions
  • Intermediate zone is located between the anterior superior and the posterior inferior aspect of the articular eminance (AE)
  • Disc is centered between the condyle and eminance in the medial, central and lateral parts

Q

What does reduction mean in terms of joint displacement

A

it means that in the closed position the disc is displaced anteriorly and upon opening the position of the disc corrects and the intermediate zone is between the condyle and AE again

Q

Describe disc displacement with reduction

A

-Intracapsular biomechanical disorder

-Clicking, popping, snapping noises may occur
-History of prior locking in the closed position and interference with mastication precludes this dx

A

History

    • Patient reports hearing TMJ noises during exam

Clinical

  • Must have one of the following
    • Noises both opening and closing or
    • Noises with either opening or closing and noises during excursive and protrusive movements

Imaging

Q

What are the differences between DD with reduction and DD with reduction and intermittent locking

A

-Everything is the same except patient reports in their history that their jaw locks and prevents them from opening all the way

Q

What is the name for open lock

A

subluxation

20
Q

Describe DD without reduction with limited opening history, clinical and imagining findings

A

History

  • Jaw locking so mouth wouldn’t open all the way
  • Limitation in jaw opening severe enough to limit ability to eat

Clinical
-MOA <40 mm

Imaging

  • Closed= anteriorly displaced disc
  • Open= Anteriorly displaced disc

**Presence of TMJ sounds doesn’t exclude this Dx

21
Q

Closed position for MRI is taken in what jaw position

A

MIP

22
Q

What patients are candidates for surgery

A

closed lock

23
Q

Describe the historic. clinical, and image findings for DD without reduction without limited opening

A

History

  • Positive for both
    • Jaw locked so that the mouth wouldn’t open all the way
    • Limitation in jaw opening interfering with ability to eat

Clinical
-MOA <40 mm

Imaging

  • Closed= anteriorly displaced disc
  • Open= Anteriorly displaced disc

Presence of TMJ noises doesn’t exclude this Dx

24
Q

What other measurement do you need to consider when obtaining MAO

A

vertical overlap

25
Q

Which of the following disc displacement diagnosies provides the best validity based on sesnitivity and specificity

A

DD without reduction with limited opening

26
Q

What imaging is needed for a dx of Degenerative joint disease (DJD)

A

CT

27
Q

What are the planes of view in a CT

A

axial and coronal (can be manipulated into a sagittal view as well)

28
Q

Describe a normal condyle appearance in CT

A
  • Normal relative size (although size does vary)
  • Defined cortical margin
  • No subcortical sclerosis or articular surface flattening
  • No deformation due to subcortical cyst, surface erosion, osteophytes, or generalized sclerosis
29
Q

T/F Marginal sclerosis and Condyle flattening are a part of DJD diagnosis

A

F

30
Q

Describe the historical, clinical, and imaging findings needed for a DJD diagnosis

A

History
-Last 30- report TMJ sounds from jaw movement or function or reports hearing them during the exam

Clinical
-Crepitus detected with palpation during open/close/lateral/protrusive movements

Imaging

  • At least one of the following is present
    • Subchondral cyst, erosion, generalized sclerosis, or osteophytes
    • Not marginal (localized) sclerosis) or flattening of the condyle
31
Q

Why are marginal sclerosis and flattening not part of DJD dx

A

these may represent normal variation, aging, remodeling, or a precursor to frank DJD

32
Q

Describe the historic, clinical, and imaging findings with subluxation

A

History

  • Positive for both
    • Last 30 days jaw locking or catching in a wide open mouth position
    • Inability to close the mouth from a wide open position without a self-maneuver

Imaging
-Condyle positioned beyond the height of the articular eminance with patient unable to close mouth without a maneuver

33
Q

Give two examples of hypomobility disorders

A
  • Intra-articular fibrous adhesions

- Ankyloses

34
Q

Hypomobility disorders are often a sequalae of

A

trauma

35
Q

hypomobility disorders typically (are/aren’t) associated with pain

A

aren’t

36
Q

Most frequent cause of TMJ ankylosis is _ and less frequently caused by _

A 
Most= macrotrauma 
Less= infection of the mastoid or middle ear, systemic disease and inadequate surgical treatment of condyle area
37
Q

Hypomobility disorders are characterized by

A
  • Restricted mandibular movement

- Deflection to the affected side on opening

38
Q

Associated characteristics of of hypomobility disorders are

A
  • History of loss of jaw mobility
  • Positive diagnosis of a disc-complex disorder
  • Limited range of motion on opening
  • Marked deflection to the affected side
  • Markedly limited laterotrusion to the contralateral side
39
Q

Fibrous adhesions in the TMJ most often occur where

A

Superior compartment

40
Q

Radiographic findings of fibrous ankylosis

A

none other than absence of ipsilateral condylar translation on opening

41
Q

Radiographic findings of osseous ankylosis

A
  • Bone proliferation
  • Marked deflection to affected side
  • Limited laterotrusion to the contralateral side
42
Q

Which is more common osseous or fibrous ankylosis

A

fibrous

43
Q

What is required to confirm a Dx of fibrous ankylosis

A
  • History of progressive loss of jaw mobility
  • Limited range of motion on opening
  • Marked deflection to the affected side
  • Markedly limited laterotrusion to the contralateral side

Imaging must also show…

  • Decreased to complete lack of ipsilateral condylar translation on opening
  • A disc space between the ipsilateral condyle and the eminence
44
Q

Define aplasia

A

-(typically unilateral) absence of the condyle
0Incomplete development of the articular fossa and eminance
-Results in facial asymmetries

45
Q

Define hypo and hyperplasia

A

Under/over development of the cranial bones or mandible. (hyperplasia= non-neoplastic)

46
Q

People with Rheumatoid arthritis typically have (anterior/posterior) (open/closed) bites and why

A

Anterior open because the joint degenerates causing the condyles (or the ramus?) to shorten. Then when the elevator muscles contract the condyles pivot leading to open bite
