“…Extra-articular causes of limited opening are myofascial pain disorder and coronoid hyperplasia. Intra-articular reasons include internal derangement, intra-articular pathology, and TMJ ankylosis [ 12 ]. Coronoid hyperplasia should be differentiated from Jacob disease where trismus is caused by pseudo-joint formation [ 13 ].…”

“…Microscopic examination of Jacob disease shows formation of a pseudo-cartilaginous joint between coronoid process and the zygoma. This pseudo-joint is characterized by reactive new bone on the surface of the coronoid process and a fibro-cartilaginous cap, probably as a consequence of traumatic injury with chronic friction between the two bones [ 12 ]. In contrast, coronoid hyperplasia shows histologically normal bone [ 5 ].…”

“…Jacob's disease is a disease with discrete clinical symptoms, leading to a progressive reduction of mouth opening if initial diagnosis and definitive treatment is delayed 6 . Lateral deviation in mouth opening when only one side is affected or alteration in the malar region can be a strong indication of the disease 7 .…”

“…From the first documentation of Jacob's Disease until 2010, only 50 cases have been reported in literature, although only 39 had histological evidence of pseudoarticulation [5,6]. Reports point to male prevalence (63%), mean age of 30 years-old (5-73 years) [5] and slight predilection for the left side [1]. The first clinical sign and main presenting characteristic is a significantly reduced mouth opening [5].…”
