Eminectomy associated with redirectioning of the temporal muscle for treatment of recurrent TMJ dislocation
Abstract
Fourteen patients with recurrent dislocation of the temporomandibular joint underwent surgical operation which consisted of Myrhaug's (1951) technique (resection of the articular tubercle and eminence). In 12 of these 14 cases, Myrhaug's technique was associated with redirectioning of the temporal muscle (Ullik and Zenker's (1961) technique). The simultaneous performance of both surgical procedures has been extremely useful in achieving a definite cure of recurrent dislocation of the temporomandibular joint.
