Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of intra-articular injection of platelet rich plasma versus hyaluronic acid following diagnostic arthroscopy in the management of patients suffering from degenerative temporomandibular joint (TMJ).

This is a prospective randomized study of 20 patients with TMJ degenerative joint diseases Wilkes IV, V.

Patients will be divided into two groups; Group A: will be treated with operative arthroscopy plus intra-articular platelet rich plasma.

Group B: will be treated with operative arthroscopy plus intra-articular hyaluronic acid.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: arthroscopy plus platelet rich plasma.

Group A: will be treated with operative arthroscopy plus intra-articular injection of platelet rich plasma

Procedure: Temporomandibular joint arthroscopy plus intra-articular injection
patients with TMJ degenerative joint diseases Wilkes stages IV, V not responding to conservative treatment will undergo operative diagnostic arthroscopic treatment then at the end of the procedure intra-articular injection of platelet rich plasma or hyaluronic acid will be done.

Active Comparator: arthroscopy plus hyaluronic acid.

Group B: will be treated with operative arthroscopy plus intra-articular injection of hyaluronic acid

Procedure: Temporomandibular joint arthroscopy plus intra-articular injection
patients with TMJ degenerative joint diseases Wilkes stages IV, V not responding to conservative treatment will undergo operative diagnostic arthroscopic treatment then at the end of the procedure intra-articular injection of platelet rich plasma or hyaluronic acid will be done.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Change in maximum inter-incisal mouth opening [change from baseline maximum interincisal mouth opening in millimeters at 6 months postoperative]

    change in maximum inter-incisal mouth opening will be measured in millimeters

  2. Change in pain intensity [change from preoperative pain intensity according to 100 -point visual analogue scale at 6 months postoperative]

    A 100 -point visual analogue scale (VAS) for the assessment of pain intensity with 0 as the absence of pain and 100 as the worst pain imaginable With filled standardized charts.
