External Jugular Thrombosis: A Previously Unreported Complication of Temporomandibular Joint Arthroscopy

Luis Vicente González et al. J Oral Maxillofac Surg. 2023 Aug.

Abstract

Temporomandibular joint intra-articular disorders are commonly managed using arthroscopic-assisted procedures. Arthroscopic procedures are minimally invasive, generally successful, and report a low frequency of complications. Vascular complications are particularly uncommon. This case report summarizes the diagnosis and management of jugular vein thrombosis following temporomandibular joint arthroscopy.
