An investigation into the involvement of the temporomandibular joint in rheumatoid arthritis is described. There is evidence to show that is is affected in two-thirds of all cases of the disease, and this figure agrees broadly with other recent studies. The clinical and radiographic presentation is discussed and its relationship to degenerative disease (osteoarthosis) of the temporomandibular joint is shown. The clinical course of this manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis is proposed and a line of treatment is suggested.
本文描述了一项关于颞下颌关节在类风湿性关节炎中所起作用的调查。有证据表明，在三分之二的该疾病病例中，颞下颌关节会受到影响，这一数字与近期的其他研究大致相符。文中讨论了其临床和影像学表现，并展示了它与颞下颌关节退行性疾病（骨关节炎）的关系。文中提出了类风湿性关节炎这一表现形式的临床病程，并给出了一条治疗思路。
