    Author: Singh I, Jain A, Prasad P, Rajpurohit P.
    Journal: Oral Maxillofac Surg; 2017 Mar; 21(1):87-90. PubMed ID: 27942877.
    Abstract:
    Spontaneous herniation of temporomandibular joint into the external auditory canal through the foramen of Huschke is a very rare condition. We describe a case of spontaneous temporomandibular joint herniation in a 35-year-old male, who presented with otorrhea and aural fullness. The herniation was repaired using collagen mesh. A literature review of all the previous reported cases of spontaneous temporomandibular joint was done to study the presenting clinical features and the method of surgical repair.
