A group of patients with a craniomandibular disorder of arthrogenous origin demonstrated an age-related variation of condylar asymmetry with age. This may reflect a greater depletion of the mesenchymal cell layer, which is responsible for adaptation of the articular surface as age increases. This would then result in greater deterioration of the articular surfaces and a consequent decrease in condylar asymmetry.
一组关节源性颅下颌关节紊乱症患者表现出髁突不对称随年龄的变化。这可能反映出间充质细胞层的消耗更大，随着年龄增长，间充质细胞层负责关节表面的适应性变化。这将导致关节表面的更大程度退化，进而导致髁突不对称性降低。
