Abstract

Metastases or tumour to the jaws are rare and those to the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) are even rarer. The symptoms like preauricular pain, swelling and clicking are generally associated with TMJ disease. But the same symptoms are also found in tumours of the jaws or other diseases. We report on the case of a 48-year-old woman with a 12-year history of breast cancer who was referred to our department for clarification of preauricular swelling and pain. The possible aetiology of TMJ disorders and the frequency and localization of metastases to the jaws are discussed.

摘要

转移瘤或肿瘤累及颌骨较为罕见，而累及颞下颌关节（TMJ）的情况则更为罕见。耳前疼痛、肿胀和弹响等症状通常与颞下颌关节疾病有关。但这些相同的症状也见于颌骨肿瘤或其他疾病。我们报告一例48岁女性，有12年乳腺癌病史，因耳前肿胀和疼痛前来我科就诊以明确病因。本文讨论了颞下颌关节紊乱的可能病因以及颌骨转移瘤的发生率和部位。
