Abstract:
Surgical arthroscopy is an important option in the treatment of TMJ pain and disfunction. Also sonography of the TMJ is a technique that with recent improvements graphically displays and analyzes joint sounds. A comparison was performed between presurgical data obtained by sonography, clinical findings obtained by surgical arthroscopy, and post surgical control performed by sonography. Precise correlation between these data was found in the case reported.
