Diagnognis and treatment of masticatory muscle tendon-aponeurosis
hyperplasia as a temporomandibular joint hypomobility disorder: Five
case series and surgical technical notes
Abstract
Since hyperplastic aponeurosis and tendons cause limited muscle
extension, patients with masticatory muscle tendon-aponeurosis
hyperplasia (MMTAH) experience a limited mouth opening ability due to
restrictions in muscle extension. Therefore, this article discusses five
patients of MMTAH who underwent bilateral aponeurotomy combined with
coronoidectomy in our department.
