Disc-temporal adhesion and conservative functional approach: clinical evidence

The Authors show the formative mechanism of disco-temporal adhesion which is a frequent disorder difficult to detect. The mechanisms of articular tension and compression are possible, possible etiopathogenetic factors. In order to point out as the integration of diagnostic and therapeutic methods can frequently provide satisfactory results in the conservative ambit, two clinical cases are described. Diagnostic-therapy iter must be individually planned according to the anatomo-functional situation and to the requests of the patient. Clinical monitoring, diagnostic and therapeutic attention and refinement are the rudiments in the approach to these problems.
