Synovial Chondromatosis of the Temporomandibular Joint: A clinical and arthroscopic study of 16 cases
Conclusion(s)MRI and arthroscopic technique could be the first choice in the diagnosis and treatment of SC. Most cases were in stage 3 of the disease at the first visit. Low recurrence rate may be attributed to the improvement of intra-articular environment after surgery. Larger sample sizes are needed for further study.
