Study These Flashcards
A
  1. Arthrocentesis
  2. Arthroscopy
  3. Arthroplasty
  4. Joint replacement
24
Q

What is the term for treatment in which 2 needles are inserted into the superior joint space, which flush the joint space and inject Healon (hyaluronic acid) as a joint lubricant (can also inject steroids)?

Study These Flashcards
A

Arthrocentesis

25
What is the term for treatment in which direct visualization and inspection of joint is done internally, can be diagnostic and therapeutic, can be used to release adhesions (can still flush the joint space and inject Healon or antibiotics)?
Arthroscopy
26
What is the term for an open joint procedure done to reposition and recontour the cartilage, osseous recontouring?
Arthroplasty
27
Is it preferred to do a menisectomy during arthroplasty?
No. No good meniscus replacement.
28
What is the donor site for an autograft in arthroplasty where the condyle will be replaced?
Rib
29
What is the donor mandible?
Allogenic (Cadaver)
30
What is the thickness of the glenoid fossa as a surgical consideration?
0.9mm
31
What innervates the retrodiscal tissue and therefore transmits pain when there is an internal derangement of the TMJ?
Auriculotemporal nerve
32
What is the term for a disruption of the internal aspects of the TMJ in which an abnormal relationship exists between the disk and the condyle, fossa, and articular eminence?
TMJ internal derangement
33
What is the most common reason why the TMJ disc displaces?
Increased friction / lubrication impairment
34
What is the Wilkes staging where there is opening and reciprocal clicking, but no pain or limitation of movement?
Wilkes Stage I
35
What is the Wilkes stage where pt has one or more episodes of pain associated with clicking or popping?
Wilkes Stage II
36
What is the Wilkes stage where pt has major mechanical symptoms with locking either intermittently or fully closed, and a restriction of motion?
Wilkes Stage III
37
What is the Wilkes stage where tomography shows early-to- moderate degenerative changes with flattening of the eminences, deformed condylar head, sclerosis, but there is no perforation of the disk or attachments?
Wilkes Stage IV
38
What is the Wilkes Stage with disk or attachment perforation, with possible subcortical cyst formation?
Wilkes Stage V
39
What is the concern of going too far medially when doing TMJ surgery?
Hitting internal maxillary artery
40
Is the proplast-teflon used for joint replacement?
No, can cause foreign body response
41
What is the nerve concern during TMJ surgery?
Facial nerve
42
What is the distance from the anterior concavity of the external auditory meatus that the facial nerve crosses the zygomatic arch?
8-35 mm
43
On what surface of the temporoparietal fascia is the facial nerve located?
The deep surface
44
What is the risk of damaging the facial nerve?
Can cause Bell's palsy
45
What are 2 means for vascular control in surgery?
1. Periauricular | 2. Submandibular to access external carotid artery
46
What is the most effective means to control maxillary artery hemorrhage?
Ligate external carotid artery in the retromandibular fossa, distal to the origin of the posterior auricular artery, combined with ligation of the superficial temporal artery at the root of zygoma
47
What is another method to control bleeding?
Embolization of the area and coil
48
What are 11 indications for alloplastic joint reconstruction?
1. Arthritic conditions 2. Ankylosis (recurrent w/ heterotrophic bone formation) 3. Revision procedures 4. Avascular necrosis 5. Multiple operated joints 6. Fracture 7. Functional deformity 8. Benign neoplasms 9. Malignancy (post-tumor excision) 10. Degenerated or resorbed joints with severe anatomic discrepancies 11. Developmental abnormalities
49
What is the etiology of TMJ Disc Displacement?
1. Trauma 2. Functional overloading 3. Joint laxity 4. Degenerative joint disease 5. Masticatory muscle spasm 6. Increased friction / lubrication impairment
50
What is a major advantage of alloplastic total joint reconstruction?
1. No donor site | 2. No fixation
51
Why is ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) used as the Fossa implant for Alloplastic joint reconstruction?
Orthopedic literature supports it
52
What is the main difference between arthrosentesis and arthroscopy?
Arthroscopy uses a camera
53
Study the internal derangement diagram slide (with nine pictures)
The middle row of images on that slide is normal
54
What are 3 indications for arthrocentesis?
1. Dislocation of the articular disc ± reduction 2. Limitations of mouth opening originating in the jaw joint 3. Joint pain and other internal derangements of the TMJ
55
What are indications for TMJ arthroscopy?
1. Radiological bone changes in TMJ characteristic to osteoarthritis with disc displacement or deformity 2. Non effectiveness of conservative treatment with NSAIDs, intraoral splints or arthrocentesis.
