  • traumatic dislocation of the mandibular condyle into the Middle Cranial Fossa treated by an intraoral approach
    Journal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2019
    Co-Authors: Ian Chen, Chiaming Chang, Michael Yuanchien Chen, K J Chen
    Abstract:

    Dislocation of the mandibular condyle is one of several consequences of facial trauma that can be anticipated. The condylar neck is inherently weak and likely to fracture at the time of impact before dislocating into the Middle Cranial Fossa. A review of the literature revealed that most cases of dislocation of the mandibular condyle into the Middle Cranial Fossa are treated by open reduction and internal fixation via an extraoral approach or are treated conservatively with closed reduction. An intraoral approach is rare. Here we present a patient with traumatic dislocation of the mandibular condyle into the Middle Cranial Fossa who was treated successfully by condylectomy and coronoidectomy through an intraoral approach and intermaxillary fixation followed by mouth-opening exercises and rehabilitation. Stable occlusion and movement of the mandible was achieved and the long-term results have been good. The intraoral approach may be an option in patients with traumatic dislocation of the mandibular condyle into the Middle Cranial Fossa.

  • Advances in the Study of the Middle Cranial Fossa through Cutting Edge Neuroimaging Techniques
    Journal of Medical Systems, 2018
    Co-Authors: Juan A. Juanes Méndez, Pablo Ruisoto, Juan C. Paniagua, Alberto Prats
    Abstract:

    The objective of this paper is to present a morphometric study of the Middle Cranial Fossa from the study of 87 patients using cutting edge multislice computed tomography scans (32 detectors) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging. The study presents a detailed anatomical-radiological and morphometric analysis of the Middle Cranial Fossa as well as its neurovascular elements in normal conditions. The implications of this investigation in training and clinical contexts are discussed.

  • A method of conservative management of dislocated mandible condyle into the Middle Cranial Fossa: Report of a case
    Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Medicine and Pathology, 2013
    Co-Authors: Jianjun Jiao, Yuxing Guo, Shubin Jin, Xueqiang Zhang, Gendong Yao, Hongxiang Chen, Chuan-bin Guo
    Abstract:

    Abstract Acute traumatic mandibular condyle dislocations into the Middle Cranial Fossa are rare. The diagnosis of intraCranial condylar dislocation is difficult, and CT is the most effective screening tool to get early correct diagnosis. A patient with an acute traumatic dislocated condyle into the Middle Cranial Fossa, which was treated conservatively, is presented here. After conservative treatment, the patient restored to normal function of jaw movement, and the fractures of the Middle Cranial Fossa completely healed and the condyle was in the reconstruction stage. The anatomic features, clinical features, and mechanism of injury for this rare type of condylar dislocation were discussed to help recognize this easily overlooked injury and avoid disastrous complications.

  • Synovial chondromatosis of the temporomandibular joint with Middle Cranial Fossa extension
    International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2007
    Co-Authors: Chuan-bin Guo, S.-d. Bao
    Abstract:

    Synovial chondromatosis of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is relatively rare. An unusual case with extension through the glenoid Fossa and into the Middle Cranial Fossa is reported. Invasion of the infratemporal Fossa and the Middle Cranial Fossa was seen on both computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. Complete removal of the loose bodies with excision of the affected synovium is the accepted treatment of synovial chondromatosis. A conservative approach should be followed while trying to eliminate any remaining lesion in the infratemporal Fossa and the Middle Cranial Fossa. An overview of previously reported cases of synovial chondromatosis with Cranial extensions is also presented.
