  • Title: [Temporomandibular joint dysfunction and neurofibromatosis. Apropos of a case].
    Author: Pasturel A, Bellavoir A, Cantaloube D, Dandrau JP, Perichaud P, Payement G.
    Journal: Rev Stomatol Chir Maxillofac; 1989; 90(1):17-9. PubMed ID: 2497508.
    Abstract:
    The authors report one case of Von Recklinghausen's disease localized to the temporomandibular joint capsule and unilaterally associated with other cephalic manifestations. Although no other study, notably a CAT-scan, showed this tumor localization, surgical exploration was imperative and led to exeresis of the lesion which proved to be the treatment of choice.
