Temporomandibular joint disorders as the only manifestation of juvenile idiopathic arthritis: a case report
ABSTRACT Juvenile idiopathic arthritis is a term used to include all chronic childhood arthritis of unknown etiology. It is characterized by chronic inflammation persisting for at least 6 weeks, beginning before 16 years of age. The characteristics present are chronic synovitis, arthralgia, impaired...

description | ABSTRACT Juvenile idiopathic arthritis is a term used to include all chronic childhood arthritis of unknown etiology. It is characterized by chronic inflammation persisting for at least 6 weeks, beginning before 16 years of age. The characteristics present are chronic synovitis, arthralgia, impaired joint mobility in at least one joint, and erosion with destruction of cartilage and subchondral bone, that could be associated or not with systemic involvement, according to each subtype of the disease. During the pathologic process, the temporomandibular joint can be involved by the juvenile idiopathic arthritis, resulting in severe mandibular dysfunction, with higher frequency in female patients. Initially, these lesions can show minor alterations like flattening of the condyle, erosions, and evolve to severe lesions, like destruction of the head of the condyle. We report a case of male patient who had destruction of both condyles, as a result from juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Proposed mechanisms to explain the juvenile idiopathic arthritis was reviewed. In this report the patient did not have pain or inflammatory process, and the temporomandibular diseases was the only manifestation. |
