Ultra-thin Rigid diagnostic and therapeutic arthroscopy during arthrocentesis: Development and preliminary clinical findings

Abstract: Arthroscopy is useful to detect early changes in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ).Despite great advances in arthroscopy, many arthroscopic surgeries have now been replaced by arthrocentesis. We propose a simple diagnostic and therapeutic method having operative rigid ultra-thin arthroscopy with 16 gauge needle size combined with arthrocentesis.

Examples of these include “For arthrocentesis, ultra-thin arthroscopy can be used” [1] and “For the palatal expansion, custom-made appliances can be considered” [2]. Though some issue raised in these articles may be interesting, novel findings are few.…”

“…Arthroscopy may add more to the benefit of this mode of treatment such as the ability to visualize any internal derangements using an endoscope, coagulate inflamed synovial lining with laser, and to manipulate or reposition of the disc as needed. Hence, the procedure is indicated toward cases of intracapsular disease primarily [20].…”

“…MRI is usually performed preoperatively to confirm the type of derangements and stage of involvement. It might be contraindicated to use this treatment in cases of advanced TMD, ankylosis, or primary muscular disease that requires preemptive consideration [19][20][21]. The technique is directed toward inserting a circulatory flush to the superior joint space.…”
