A reference to assist clinicians in the complex field of diagnosis and treatment of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, providing detailed factual descriptions of magnetic resonance (MR) and computed tomography (CT) images with clinical correlations. The volume contains 14 chapters: imaging techniques; anatomy and pathology of the TMJ; imaging of the normal TMJ; anatomic variations and artifacts; internal derangements; arthritic conditions; ankylosis/hypomobility conditions; synovial chondromatosis; infection; neoplasms; facial deformities; fractures; differential diagnosis; and imaging of postoperative conditions--longitudinal imaging studies.

This second edition of the Atlas of Temporomandibular Joint Surgery is a major revision of Dr. Quinn’s classic work, taking into account new procedures, equipment, and evidence-based findings from the latest research in TMJ treatment. Assuming that readers are familiar with non-surgical therapies to correct temporomandibular pain and disorders, Drs. Quinn and Granquist focus on the surgical remedies for disorders that are beyond conservative treatment. This concise, how-to surgical atlas guides both the novice and experienced surgeon through the intra-articular and extra-articular procedures that have proven efficacious in the treatment of advanced craniomandibular dysfunction. Chapters take readers through decision making for TMJ surgery, diagnostic imaging methods, surgical approaches, surgery for internal derangements, trauma, osseous surgical procedures, total joint replacement, and pathologies.

This brilliant color atlas describes a range of surgical procedures from open joint surgery to total joint replacement. It deals with one of the most vexing problems for oral and maxillofacial surgeons selecting the proper surgical option for patients who have exhausted all conservative methods of dealing with TMJ pain and dysfunction. The book's major focus is on internal derangement, trauma, and management of benign and malignant disorders. COLOR ATLAS OF TEMPOROMANDIBULAR JOINT SURGERY illustrates the technical aspects of various surgical procedures on the temporomandibular joint, focusing on open joint surgical procedures. Potential surgical modalities explored include: arthroscopy, meniscal repair, and the use of autogenous and alloplastic materials in joint reconstruction. Written by an authoritative, highly respected surgeon whose surgical skills are in great demand. Presents the basics of etiology, diagnosis, and treatment of TMJ disorders to simplify often complex problems. Surgical procedures are illustrated in a step-by-step format to take the surgeon through the procedure in a manner that he will be able to duplicate when he performs the surgery. Hundreds of vivid color photographs were created with painstaking care to demonstrate a clean surgical field, free of blood, so that intraoperative views and anatomic structures are readily visualized. Includes a separate chapter on orthognathic surgery and its related surgical complications to provide essential information on the all-too-common complications of orthognathic surgery. Includes a collection of treatment flow sheets (algorithms) for each possible kind of temporomandibular joint surgery to clarify the decision-making process involved in diagnosing and treating all varieties of TMJ disorders. Features an excellent collection of computer-generated art maximum clarity in illustrating crucial procedures.
