Temporomandibular Eklem Bozukluklarında Ultrasonografinin Diagnostik Etkinliğinin Değerlendirilmesi: Bir Pilot Çalışma
Amaç: Temporomandibular eklem hastalıkları (TMD) verahatsızlıkları, çene bölgesinde ve ilgili kaslarda ağrı ile ortayaçıkan ve normal konuşma, yüz ifadesi, yeme, çiğneme ve yutmahareketlerini kısıtlayabilen durumları ifade eder. Ultrasonografi(US), invazif olmayan, düşük maliyetli, kullanımı kolay veiyonlaştırıcı radyasyon olmaksızın ses dalgalarının kullanıldığı,bununla birlikte; diagnostik prosedür olarak TMD teşhisi içindoğruluğu kanıtlanmış bir görüntüleme yöntemidir. Bu pilotçalışmanın amacı, temporomandibular eklem hastalıklarındaultrasonografik görüntülemenin tanısal etkinliğinindeğerlendirmektir.Gereç ve Yöntem: Temporomandibular eklem (TME) ile ilgilişikayetleri bulunan, Marmara Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği FakültesiOral Diagnoz ve Radyoloji Kliniğine başvuran 20 hastanın (kadın,erkek) retrospektif ultrasonografi görüntüleri kondiler yüzeydüzensizlikleri, eklem boşluğunda daralma ve efüzyon açısındandeğerlendirilmiştir.Bulgular: Toplam 20 hasta (% 70 kadın, % 30 erkek, yaşortalaması :33,75) ve 40 TME değerlendirilmiş ve % 15 eroziv –dejeneratif değişiklik, % 82,5 kondiler yüzeyde düzleşme ve % 27oranlarında artan eklem kapsülü genişliği gözlenmiştir.Sonuç: Ultrasonografi, TME’ nin görüntülenmesi ve rutinklinik uygulamada TMD’nin değerlendirilebilmesi için uygun veinvaziv olmayan bir tekniktir.
Evaluation of Diagnostic Efficiency of Ultrasonography in Temporomandibular Joint Disorders: A Pilot Study
Objective: Temporomandibular Joint diseases (TMD) anddisorders refer to a complex of conditions, manifested by painin jaw area and associated muscles and limitations in the abilityto make the normal movements of speech, facial expression,eating, chewing, and swallowing. Ultrasonography (US) is a noninvasive,cost-effective, easy-to-use imaging method using soundwaves, without ionizing radiation and as a diagnostic procedureit has been shown to be accurate for the diagnosis of TMD. Thepurpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the diagnostic efficacyof ultrasonography imaging in temporomandibular joint disorders.Material and Method: The retrospective ultrasonographyimages of 20 patients (female, male) who had been referred toMarmara University, Faculty of Dentistry, Oral Diagnosis andRadiology Clinic with a complaint related to Temporomandibularjoint (TMJ) were evaluated in terms of condylar surfaceirregularities, joint space reduction and joint effusion.Results: A total of 20 patients ( % 70 female, %30 male, meanage: 33,75) and 40 TMJ were evaluated and in % 15 erosive –degenerative changes, in % 82,5 condylar surface flattening and in% 27,5 increased joint capsule width was observed.Conclusion: Ultrasonography is a non-invasive techniquesuitable for visualization of TMJ and evaluation of TMD in routineclinical practice.
