“…Anatomic variations of the petrotympanic fissure may place patients at higher risk (4). Retrospective analysis of TMJ arthroscopy procedures indicate that otologic damage is a rare complication of this procedure (5). The few cases detailed in the literature present similarly to our patient, often resulting in devastating sensorineural hearing loss if the inner ear is damaged (3).…”

Arthrocentesis is a frequently performed and accepted minimally invasive and predictable procedure in the treatment of temporomandibular joint disorders. This review aimed to evaluate arthrocentesis complications. The literature search has included PubMed, Google Scholar, and EMBASE databases by using terms "((TMJ OR TEMPOROMANDIBULAR JOINT OR TMD OR TEMPOROMANDIBULAR DISORDER) AND ARTHROCENTESIS) AND COMPLICATION". Publications up to 2019 were examined. Seven studies involving arthrocentesis complications were included. Although arthrocentesis is considered as a cost-effective and safe procedure, complications may be seen due to its proximity to important anatomical structures. Most of these complications are short-lived and can easily be managed in the outpatient clinic; however, some severe complications have rarely been reported in the literature. The practitioners who perform this procedure should be aware of these possible complications and be able to manage them in the clinic.

Introduction: Internal derangement is an abnormal relationship between the articular disc and the mandibular condyle. The most common cause is trauma. Various classifications have been given for internal derangement. Initial management is done conservatively and if the disease is progressed, surgery is the option. Various surgical methods and interpositional materials following discectomy have been given in the literature. Materials and Methods: Over the past 15 years, we selected a group of 30 patients, Wilkes Class IV and V where conservative therapy had failed and were candidates for surgery. The patients had their disc repositioned, the damaged part of the disc was excised and disc was reinforced using the temporalis myofascial flap (TMF). In cases where the disc was non-salvageable, discectomy was done and TMF was placed between condyle and glenoid fossa, sutured with Prolene. The follow-up period was 3 years. Results: Of the 30 patients, there were 9 male and 21 female. Range of mouth opening was 3.3–3.8 cm with improvements in 1 year. The jaw relations gradually improved and were restored after 3 weeks. Patients were totally pain free in 6 months. Discussion: For the cases where surgery is the line of treatment, we strongly suggest disc repositioning and reinforcement with TMF as the flap is bulky, locally available and easy to harvest and causes no deformity at the donor site.
