摘要：To evaluate the post-operative condylar bone remodeling after the treatment of Yang's arthroscopic surgery. Consecutive cases from Jan 2017 to May 2018 that received Yang's arthroscopic surgery were included in this study, the TMJ MRI examinations were performed preoperatively and postoperatively (follow up for 1 year or more), and condylar bone remodeling was estimated. A total of 229 patients (29 male and 200 female) were included in the study, 161 patients had new bone formation, and the average age was 17.5 ± 2.1a. There was no new bone formation in 68 patients with an average age of 24.5 ± 0.7a. The percentage of new bone formation patients in 10-15 years of age was 94.33% and decreases as the age increases. In the position of new bone formation, the posterior slope of condyle was the most (129 joints), the second was the top of condyle (54 joints), the third was around condyle (33 joints), only 25 joints had new bone on the anterior slope of condyle. After TMJ arthroscopic surgery, the condyle has the ability to form new bone, and the younger the age, the stronger the ability of new bone formation. The formation of new bone was most in posterior slope and least in anterior slope of condyle.
