Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) arthroscopy on 30 joints of 26 patients with different signs and symptoms of TMJ arthropathy was evaluated. Local anaesthesia was used and proved efficient. In 27 cases, the superior, and in 3 cases both, compartments were punctured. Successful examination was performed in 26 superior and 3 attempted inferior compartments. Functional impairment following arthroscopy was minor and rarely lasted more than one week. No postoperative bleeding, nerve damage, or infection was observed. Of the 2 systems tested, the rod-lens arthroscope showed superior optical quality.
对26例患有不同颞下颌关节病体征和症状患者的30个关节进行了颞下颌关节镜检查评估。采用局部麻醉，效果良好。27例穿刺了上腔，3例上下腔均穿刺。对上腔的26例检查成功，对下腔的3例尝试性检查中，有2例成功。关节镜检查后的功能损害较小，很少持续超过一周。未观察到术后出血、神经损伤或感染。在测试的2种系统中，棒状透镜关节镜显示出更好的光学质量。
