Trauma is the major cause for temporomandibular joint (TMJ) ankylosis. 20 patients with posttraumatic TMJ ankylosis were surgically treated with interposition of lyophilized homologous cartilage between the newly-formed condylar head and the articular fossa. The follow-up of all patients revealed a correct function of the TMJ. A meticulously performed surgical exposure is decisive for the prevention of facial nerve paresis.
创伤是颞下颌关节（TMJ）强直的主要原因。20例创伤后颞下颌关节强直患者接受了手术治疗，在新形成的髁突头部与关节窝之间植入冻干同种异体软骨。所有患者的随访结果显示颞下颌关节功能正常。精心进行手术显露对于预防面神经麻痹至关重要。
