Anesthetic Implications of Previously Undiagnosed Temporomandibular Joint Ankylosis: A Case Report.
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) ankylosis is characterized by bony fusion that limits TMJ mobility. We present the case of an elderly woman who was brought to the operating room for dental rehabilitation under general anesthesia. The patient had an undiagnosed TMJ ankylosis, which was discovered only after induction of anesthesia due to her nonverbal status and advanced dementia. The surgical team canceled the case due to limited access to the surgical field. We discuss the factors that suggest TMJ ankylosis and propose the perioperative management when TMJ ankylosis is suspected but unconfirmed.
期刊介绍:
A & A Case Reports, our new online journal publishing Case Reports, related Editorial Commentary, and Correspondence. Anesthesia & Analgesia 1 and Anesthesiology 2 recently announced that they were suspending publication of Case Reports. One reason is that Case Reports typically reduce the Impact Factor of a journal because they are rarely cited. Regardless of the merits of Impact Factor as a metric of journal worth, journals and their editors necessarily consider Impact Factor in strategic planning. At the same time, Case Reports are appreciated by readers for describing “real life” management of difficult or unusual cases not often encountered by practitioners. In a recent issue of Anesthesia & Analgesia, Steven Shafer1 identified many Case Reports whose publication launched productive careers dedicated to solving the puzzle posed by an unusual observation in a single patient.
