[PMID: 38685690 DOI: 10.1111/joor.13704] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2023] [Revised: 03/18/2024] [Accepted: 04/10/2024] [Indexed: 05/02/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Idiopathic condylar resorption (ICR), also known as progressive condylar resorption, is poorly understood, particularly in adolescent patients. Therefore, this scoping review aims to summarize the available literature on the prevalence, aetiology, pathogenesis, diagnostic process, treatment and/or any outcome regarding ICR in adolescent individuals. METHODS This scoping review followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines and its extension for scoping reviews (PRISMA-ScR), as well as Joanna Briggs Institute studies. The search strategy was defined adopting a core search structure for each source, and the search was performed on MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Scopus and Google Scholar. After duplicate removal, two independent reviewers screened abstracts, followed by complete articles, to achieve the definition of included studies. Data collection was performed, and the extracted data were organized in tabular form, along with a narrative summary of main findings that aligns with the objective of this review. RESULTS Six observational studies were included in this review. Three studies focused on signs and symptoms, one on prevalence and signs and symptoms, one on treatment and one on disease pathogenesis. CONCLUSION This scoping review revealed inadequate published research regarding prevalence, aetiology, early diagnosis, pathogenesis and treatment of ICR in adolescents.

Controversial Aspects of Diagnostics and Therapy of Idiopathic Condylar Resorption: An Analysis of Evidence- and Consensus-Based Recommendations Based on an Interdisciplinary Guideline Project. J Clin Med 2023; 12:4946. [PMID: 37568349 PMCID: PMC10419428 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12154946] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2023] [Revised: 07/19/2023] [Accepted: 07/21/2023] [Indexed: 08/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Idiopathic condylar resorption (ICR), though a rare event, is associated with severe detrimental sequelae for the patient. To date, the etiology remains unknown, and treatment strategies are highly controversial. Therefore, the aim of this study is to present an analysis of the consensus- and evidence-based approach to ICR by a German interdisciplinary guideline project of the AWMF (Association of the Scientific Medical Societies in Germany). Following a systematic literature search, including 56 (out of an initial 97) publications, with a predominantly low level of evidence (LoE), two independent working groups (oral and maxillofacial surgery and interdisciplinary, respectively) voted on a draft comprising 25 recommendations in a standardized anonymized and blinded Delphi procedure. While the results of the votes were relatively homogeneous, the interdisciplinary phase required a significantly higher number of rounds (p < 0.001). Most of the controversial recommendations were related to initial imaging (with consensus on CT/CBCT as the current diagnostic standard for imaging), pharmacotherapy (no recommendation due to lack of evidence), discopexy (no recommendation possible due to low LoE) and timing of orthognathic surgery (with consensus on two-staged procedures after invasive TMJ surgery, except for single-stage procedures if combined with total joint reconstruction). Overall, the Delphi procedure resulted in an interdisciplinary guideline offering the best possible evidence- and consensus-based expertise to date in the diagnosis and treatment of ICR.

Bousquet B, Kellenberger CJ, Caprio RM, Jindal S, Resnick CM. Does MRI Distinguish Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis from Other Causes of Progressive TMJ Destruction? J Oral Maxillofac Surg 2023:S0278-2391(23)00331-2. [PMID: 37086749 DOI: 10.1016/j.joms.2023.03.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2022] [Revised: 02/23/2023] [Accepted: 03/29/2023] [Indexed: 04/05/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Similarities in initial presentations of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) involvement from juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), idiopathic condylar resorption, and other forms of progressive TMJ destruction in children create diagnostic confusion. Treatment pathways, however, depend on determination of etiology. The purpose of this study was to compare TMJ magnetic resonance images (MRIs) of patients with joint degeneration localized to the TMJs to those with JIA and TMJ involvement. METHODS This is a retrospective cross-sectional study including subjects younger than 18 years that presented from February 2008 to October 2019 with clinical TMJ degeneration, a gadolinium-enhanced TMJ MRI and a negative pediatric rheumatologic workup ("non-JIA" group), and a series of age and sex-matched subjects with TMJ degeneration on gadolinium-enhanced MRI and JIA ("JIA group"). MRIs were evaluated in a blinded fashion by 1 pediatric radiologist. The primary outcome variable was the radiologist's accuracy in predicting study grouping, assessed in 1 randomly-selected joint per patient. Secondary outcome variables included MRI characteristics of inflammation, osseous damage and articular disc morphology. Independent samples t-tests, sensitivity/specificity, Fisher's exact and Mann-Whitney tests were computed as applicable, and P < .05 was considered significant. RESULTS The sample included 34 subjects: 16 non-JIA (75% female, age 13.9 ± 2.8 years) and 18 JIA (77% female, age 13.6 ± 2.8 years) (P ≥ .738). The radiologist correctly classified 64.7% of subjects as non-JIA or JIA (P = .078, sensitivity = 94.4%, specificity = 31.3%). Inflammatory and osseous findings were similar between groups (P ≥ .073). The disc was anteriorly displaced in 9 non-JIA and 0 JIA joints (P < .001, sensitivity = 100%, specificity = 100%) and flattened in 3 non-JIA and 14 JIA joints (P = .006, sensitivity = 38.9%, specificity = 90.6%). CONCLUSION Inflammatory and osseous findings on gadolinium-enhanced TMJ MRIs are insufficient to determine the etiology of progressive TMJ destruction. Disc characteristics, however, significantly differ between JIA and non-JIA etiologies and may be important in differentiating these conditions.

Three-dimensional relationships between condylar volume and dentoskeletal characteristics in Class II hyperdivergent female adults. BMC Oral Health 2023; 23:148. [PMID: 36915097 PMCID: PMC10012536 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-023-02838-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2022] [Accepted: 02/24/2023] [Indexed: 03/14/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to determine the differences among various volumes of condylar osseous patterns and the corresponding dentoskeletal characteristics based on the risk of temporomandibular disorder. METHODS Craniofacial spiral computed tomography data of 60 Class II hyperdivergent female adults were divided into normal, resorptive, flattened, and osteophyte groups based on condylar osseous forms. The condylar volumes of each group were compared, and their correlations with the dentoskeletal characteristics were assessed in three dimensions. Pairwise least significant difference tests were used to examine individual pairwise differences between groups, and one-way analysis of variance was used to measure differences among multiple groups. Pearson correlation and Spearman rank correlation analyses were used to determine the correlation between condylar volume and dentofacial characteristics. Statistical significance was established at p < 0.05. RESULTS The condylar volume in the normal group was significantly greater than that in the changed groups, with no significant differences between the subgroups. The decrease in condylar volume was associated with a retruded and clockwise-rotated mandible with shorter rami. Condylar volume was negatively correlated with overjet, the alveolar height of the lower anterior and posterior teeth, sagittal inclinations of the lower teeth, intermolar width of the mandibular first molars, and width between the corresponding alveolar crests. CONCLUSION Multiple three-dimensional dentoskeletal characteristics of Class II hyperdivergent female adults are correlated with condylar bony changes, regardless of the form. These results could be helpful in indicating potential pathological changes in the temporomandibular joint and in making proper treatment plans for these patients.

Association between an Increased Serum CCL5 Level and Pathophysiology of Degenerative Joint Disease in the Temporomandibular Joint in Females. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24032775. [PMID: 36769097 PMCID: PMC9917489 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24032775] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2023] [Revised: 01/25/2023] [Accepted: 01/30/2023] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Degenerative joint disease of the temporomandibular joints (DJD-TMJ) clinically manifests with symptoms such as orofacial pain, joint sounds and limited jaw movements. Our research group previously reported the functional necessity of a chemokine-chemokine receptor axis of CCL5-CCR5 in osteoclasts. Accumulated studies reported that this axis was involved in the pathogenesis of bone and joint destructive diseases, suggesting CCL5 as a potent biomarker. This study investigated whether or not the serum level of CCL5 can be a biomarker of DJD-TMJ and concomitantly analyzed changes in the serum and urine levels of bone markers to see whether or not changes in the rate of bone metabolism were predisposing. We enrolled 17 female subjects with diagnosed DJD-TMJ and sexually and age-matched 17 controls. The serum CCL5 level in DJD-TMJ subjects was significantly higher than that in the control subjects. Multivariate analyses indicated an association between an augmented CCL5 level and the rate of bone metabolism, especially in relatively young DJD-TMJ subjects without other systemic symptoms. A principal component analysis of serum markers and our pharmacological experiment using a postmenopausal model of ovariectomized rats suggested that an augmented serum CCL5 level specifically reflected DJD-TMJ and that covert changes in the rate of bone metabolism predisposed individuals to DJD-TMJ.

Long-term three-dimensional condylar remodeling during presurgical orthodontics and after orthognathic surgery of mandibular retrognathia with high mandibular plane angle. Clin Oral Investig 2022; 26:7253-7263. [PMID: 35978222 DOI: 10.1007/s00784-022-04686-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/07/2022] [Accepted: 08/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/03/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Patients with high mandibular plane facial morphology are the most dominant facial type who experience TMJ abnormalities with resultant condylar resorption, affecting the orthodontic and orthognathic treatment outcomes. The study aimed to quantitatively assess the three-dimensional condylar remodeling during the presurgical orthodontics and after orthognathic surgery of the retrognathic mandible with a high mandibular plane angle. The study also investigated the correlation between the resultant remodeling based on the hypothesis that condylar resorption following orthognathic surgery is a part of a progressive presurgical resorption process. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study included adults with mandibular retrognathism and high mandibular plane angle who have computed tomography scans (CT) obtained before any treatment (T0), after completion of presurgical treatment before surgery (T1), and at long-term follow-up after surgery (T2). DICOM of CT scan was gathered and processed using ITK-SNAP and 3D Slicer software. The interval between T0 and T1 was represented as a presurgical phase, while between T1 and T2 was defined as a postsurgical phase (T1-T2). RESULTS Twenty-five patients (50 condyles) were included with a mean age of 23 ± 3.2 years. The mean of the follow-up during the presurgical phase was 19.8 ± 7.1 months and 15.5 ± 5.5 months during the postsurgical phase. The condylar volume during the presurgical phase (T0-T1) was relatively stable (- 3.3 ± 37.2mm3). However, during the postsurgical phase (T1-T2), the volume was significantly reduced - 113.8 ± 98.3mm3 (P < 0.001). Localized condylar surface resorption during the postsurgical phase was significantly higher than during the presurgical phase (P < 0.05). No correlation was found between the localized condylar surface remodeling during the presurgical and postsurgical phases. However, a negative statistically significant correlation existed between the overall condylar volume changes during the presurgical and postsurgical phases (r = 0.502, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Significant condylar resorption following orthognathic surgery of the retrognathic mandible with a high mandibular plane angle might occur regardless of the presurgical status of the condyle. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The study provided an evidence to be discussed with the patients and considered throughout the treatment of mandibular retrognathia with high mandibular plane angle.

Abstract
Bone modelling evaluation is important for monitoring idiopathic condylar resorption (ICR) progress. To compare condylar modelling in ICR patients treated with or without stabilisation splints (SSs). Eighty-four condyles from 84 ICR patients were studied: 42 received SS therapy (SS group); 42 received conventional therapy (control group). Cone-beam computed tomography images at diagnosis (T0) and after at least 6 months (T1) were used for three-dimensional reconstruction. Volume differences between T0 and T1 (δV) were used to evaluate the amount of modelling. Percentage of growth area (PCT) was used to assess the condylar surface growth tendency. No significant change in condylar volume was found in the SS group, whereas that in the control group was significantly decreased at T1 (P <.0001). The amount of modelling differed among condylar subregions within the SS group: among 6 subregions (P =.0137), between anterior and posterior regions (P =.0336) and between lateral, intermediate and medial regions (P =.0275). Control group condylar subregions showed no significant differences in the amount of modelling. The anabolic modelling tendency of the total condylar surface in the SS group was greater than that in the control group (P =.0251); however, there were no statistical differences in PCTs among condylar subregions in either group. SS therapy effectively reduced further bone destruction and promoted condylar modelling. Three-dimensional morphological analysis is a novel method that can accurately evaluate the amount of bone modelling and growth tendency in ICR patients.
