The metastases to the TMJ from a primary lung tumour is a very rare occurrence. This case is unusual in several aspects, as the non-reducible dislocation of the TMJ was the first clinical manifestation of the tumour. CT staging showed that this secondary tumour in the condyle was the only bone metastasis.
原发性肺肿瘤转移至颞下颌关节极为罕见。该病例在多个方面都不寻常，因为颞下颌关节不可复性脱位是肿瘤的首发临床表现。CT分期显示，髁突处的这种继发性肿瘤是唯一的骨转移灶。
