Recidivating luxation of the TMJ are the topic. The clinical picture, therapy and operative methods are described. In particular, the results from a modified intraoral surgical operation are reported. Special emphasis is placed upon the partial removal of the medial pterygoid muscle which leads to a stronger and permanent scarring. This method is particularly suited for recidivating luxations, when the condyle paths are steep, and when luxation occurs toward the end of the mandibular opening movement. When condyle paths are flat or in cases of recidives other methods are recommended (for instance osteoplasty).
颞下颌关节复发性脱位是本文主题。文中描述了其临床表现、治疗方法及手术方式。特别报告了一种改良口腔内手术的结果。重点强调了部分切除翼内肌，这会导致更强且持久的瘢痕形成。该方法特别适用于复发性脱位、髁突路径陡峭以及在下颌开口运动末期发生脱位的情况。当髁突路径平坦或其他复发性情况时，推荐使用其他方法（如骨成形术）。
