    Arthroscopic examination of the temporomandibular joint superior space is a safe and effective diagnostic tool. This minimally invasive procedure provided valuable insights in 88% of cases with low complication rates.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedics
    • Surgical Innovation
    • Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) Disorders

    Background:

    • The superior space of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is a critical area for diagnosing TMJ disorders.
    • Arthroscopic techniques offer a minimally invasive approach to visualize intra-articular structures.
    • Assessing the diagnostic yield and safety of TMJ arthroscopy is essential for clinical practice.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present the surgical technique for arthroscopic examination of the TMJ superior space.
    • To evaluate the morbidity associated with this arthroscopic procedure.
    • To determine the diagnostic accuracy of arthroscopic examination in a clinical setting.

    Main Methods:

    • A retrospective review of 50 cases undergoing arthroscopic examination of the TMJ superior space.

  • Detailed description of the surgical technique employed.
  • Documentation and analysis of all complications and patient-reported symptoms.

    • Main Results:

    • Arthroscopic examination provided diagnostic information in 88% of the cases.
    • No serious complications were reported.
    • Minor, short-term complaints occurred in only 12% of the examinations.

    Conclusions:

    • Arthroscopic examination of the TMJ superior space is a highly effective diagnostic procedure.
    • The technique demonstrates a favorable safety profile with minimal morbidity.
    • This approach offers significant value in the diagnosis and management of TMJ conditions.
