✦ Synopsis

Synovial chondromatosis of the temporomandibular joint was diagnosed and location of dens particles was assessed by means of computed tomography. Based upon the data collected, the joint was operated conservatively and most of the calcifications were removed leaving the patient symptom free. The importance of an accurate preoperative diagnosis of synovial chondromatosis by use of CT scan is stressed in view of numerous unnecessary condylectomies and parotidectomies reported in the literature.

Sixtyseven patients with pain in the knee were studied. A computed tomography (CT) score indicating chondromalacia was devised, based on the results of CT after arthrography. This score takes account of the regularity, the congruity, and the imbibition of contrast material. Thus the patients could b
