Evaluation of pneumatization in the articular eminence and roof of the glenoid fossa with cone-beam computed tomography.
BACKGROUND Detection of air cavities, so called pneumatizations, nearby to the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) area is important, as they represent sites of minimal resistance and facilitate the spread of various pathologies into the joint as inflammation, tumor or fractures and serve as a possible complicating factor in TMJ surgery. AIMS To determine the prevalence of pneumatization of the art...

متن کاملPneumatized Articular Tubercle and Pneumatized Roof of Glenoid Fossa on Cone Beam Computed Tomography: Prevalence and Characteristics in Selected Iranian Population
Introdouction: Mastoid pneumatization is often complete by the age of 5-years and may involve the temporo mandibular joint (TMJ) region, including the pneumatized articular tubercle (PAT) and pneumatized roof of the glenoid fossa (PRGF). To prevent surgical complications, the diagnosis of these air cells is important. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and characteristics of...
متن کاملcone beam computed tomographic assessment of bifid mandibular condyle
objectives: differential diagnosis of bifid mandibular condyle (bmc) is important, since it may play a role in temporomandibular joint (tmj) dysfunctions and joint symptoms. in addition, radiographic appearance of bmc may mimic tumors and/or fractures. the aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence and orientation of bmc based on cone beam computed tomography (cbct) scans. materials and...
