1) Heterotopic ossification is the formation of bone in soft tissues where bone is not normally present, usually occurring after injury or surgery.
2) It has three stages - early inflammatory phase with swelling, intermediate consolidation phase with calcification visible on x-rays, and late maturation phase where the bone hardens.
3) Risk factors include trauma, surgery, burns, and genetic conditions. It most commonly occurs around the elbow and hip.
4) Excision surgery aims to remove the ectopic bone, with different approaches depending on the location. Prophylaxis with indomethacin or radiation can decrease rates of recurrence after hip surgery.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

3. • Temporomandibular joint (TMJ)
dislocation is an uncommon but
debilitating condition of the facial
skeleton
• It is the displacement of the
mandibular condyle from the
articular groove of the temporal
bone
• Hippocrates- described
Dislocation and it's treatment in
5th century BC
INTRODUCTION
4. DEFINITION
• Hypertranslation refers to excessive anterior movement of the condyle
during opening without strain or symptoms
• Subluxation is a self reducing dislocation of the tmj during which the condyle
passes anterior to the articular eminence.The condyle is able to return to the
glenoid fossa voluntarily. It is an incomplete joint dislocation
• Dislocation is the complete separation of the articular surfaces with fixation
in an abnormal position. Relocation of the condyle in its normal position in the
glenoid fossa does not occur voluntarily.
5. • TMJ is a bilateral, ginglymo-diathrodial,
synovial joint.
• It is a freely mobile joint which allows both
rotational and transitional movement
• The articulating surface is covered with
fibro-cartilage rather than hyaline cartilage
• The Main components include glenoid
fossa, articular eminence, mandibular
condyle, articular disc, ligaments, synovial
membrane and capsule.
ANATOMY OF TMJ
6. • Ginglymoathrodial joint : Superior component for translation and
Inferior component for rotation
• Mandibular condyle
• Articular cartilage : covered by perichondrium type II collagen
• Articular part of temporal bone : Concave surface of mean thickness
of 0.9mm
• Articular disc : It is composed of fibrocartilaginous tissue and divided
into an anterior zone, intermediate zone and posterior band. The disc
divides the joint into the upper compartment which allows translational
movement and lower compartment allowing rotational movement.
• Synovial cavity
• Synovial fluid
7. • Ligaments :
A. Functional - Collateral, Capsular , Temporomandibular
B. Accessory ligaments - Sphenomandibular and Stylomandibular
• Vascular supply-
A. Anterior - Superficial temporal and maxillary arteries
B. Posterior -Masseteric artery
• Innervation- Auriculotemporal nerve, masseteric nerve, posterior
deep temporal nerve
10. EPIDERMOLOGY
• Uncommon condition
• Incidence - 3%-7% of Gen population
• More common in females
• Uncommon in extremes of age
• Staz- Incidence of recurrent dislocation of 7% of 240 cases of
TMDs
• More common Bilateral
• Most commonly occurs in the anterior direction
11. AETIOLOGY
• A multitude of causes have been described in the etiopathogenesis of TMJ dislocation
including congenital, iatrogenic, anatomical aberrations, spontaneous,
pharmacological, neurological, neuromuscular, etc. Proper diagnosis of the etiology is
important to institute problem-specific treatment

• Integrity of joint ligaments -Laxity of ligaments and Capsular abnormality such as
weakness of the TMJ Capsule or unusual articular eminence size or projection
• Bony architecture of joint surfaces
• Activity of muscles acting on a joint - Spontaneous dislocation due to break in
timing of muscular action in the first phase of closing due to muscle hyperactivity
or spasms
Though various theories of pathogenesis have been described the most accepted
literature was muscular incoordination during mandibular movements.In the initial
stages of mouth closure, elevators are activated prior to the relaxation of the
depressors mainly the lateral pterygoid which pulls the condyle forward. This initial
dislocation facilitates further dislocation
14. ON THE BASIS OF
• Duration
• Direction of displacement
• Site of displacement
• Clinico-radiological evaluation
CLASSIFICATION
15. A. Acute : sudden and complete displacement of the TMJ
B. Chronic
Long-standing / Habitual
Recurrent
Protracted
BASED ON DURATION
16. • Chronic recurrent dislocation is
dislocation recurring more than
once
• Chronic protracted dislocation is
dislocation persisting more than
one month
• Chronic extra-long standing
dislocation is present for more
than six months
18. • Anterior dislocation is the most
common type of dislocation due to
weakness of the capsule in the
anterior region
• Posterior dislocation usually follows
trauma to the external auditory canal
and skull base
• Superior dislocation results when the
condyle is pushed into the middle
cranial fossa accompanied by glenoid
fossa fracture
• Lateral dislocation is rare and also
associated with high energy trauma
19. Based on the position of the head
of the condyle to the articular
eminence seen on clinico-
radiological evaluation
Type I - the head of condyle is
directly below the tip of the
eminence
Type II - the head of condyle is in
front of the tip of the eminence
Type Ill -the head of condyle is
high up in front of the base of the
eminence.
BASED ON CLINICO-
RADIOLOGICAL EVALUATION
20. • UNILATERAL : TMJ dislocation affecting only one side of the jaw.
• BILATERAL : More common . This occurs when there is dislocation of
both TMJs and affecting both sides of the jaw.
POSITION OF DISPLACEMENT
21. • Deviation of the chin to the contra
lateral side
• Profuse drooling of saliva
• Difficulty in speech
• Difficulty in mastication and
swallowing
• The mouth is partly open and the
affected condyle cannot be
palpable
CLINICAL PRESENTATION
UNILATERAL ACUTE DISLOCATION
22. BILATERAL DISLOCATION
• Pain
• Inability to close the mouth
• Protruding mandible
• Anterior open bite
• Tense masticatory muscles
• Excessive salivation
• Posterior gagging
• Muscle spasm
• Distinct hollowness seen in preauricular region
23. • History : to determine cause, onset/
duration.Important to note previous
history of local joint laxity, TMJD or use
of antipsychotic drugs
• Clinical Examination : Neurological and
musculoskeletal disorders
• Investigation : Radiological examination
• Treatment
MANAGEMENT
24. • Investigations• Orthopantomogram (OPG) (open and closed) This is the
commonly used screening modality for the examination of TMJ. Morphology of
condyle, articular eminence, and joint space can be evaluated. Open mouth OPG
shows the position of the condyle in relation to the articular eminence.•
• TMJ tomogram Open and closed mouth TMJ images can be obtained in different
slices.
• Computed tomography(CT)Evaluation of the morphology of osseous TMJ
compo-nents—condyle, articular eminence and the glenoid fossa—are better
assessed with CT.•
• Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) facilitates accurate measurement of
condylar height, width, and length as well as inclination of articular eminence.•
• MRI demonstrates the soft tissue morphology, particu-larly disc shape,
displacement, and effusion of the joint frequently associated with dislocation.•
• Electromyography(EMG) evaluates the activity of the muscles which may be
hypoactive, normoactive, or hyperactive.•
• Ultrasonography :Thickness and length of the muscles can be evaluated both at
rest and clench
25.
26. Diagnosis
Evaluation and treatment methods for TMJ dislocation have
continued to evolve due to varied aetiology and presentations,
as different types of dislocation can result from traumatic and
non-traumatic causes.
To decide the treatment plan, the aetiology and duration of the
dislocation must be understood
27. TREATMENT OF ACUTE DISLOCATION
Acute dislocation presents with a major problem of overcoming the
resistance of severe muscle spasm.
Immediate attention for relief of pain and anxiety in order to
minimize damage to the joint structure
This can be achieved by
• Manipulation without any form of anaesthesia
• Manipulation with local anaesthesia
• Manipulation under general anesthesia/ sedation with muscle relaxants
28. MANIPULATION WITH LOCAL ANAESTHESIA
• Manipulation with local anesthesia involves use of nerve blocks
which are regional anaesthesia techniques in order to achieve
broader area of anaesthesia in the area of sensory innervation
of a nerve
• These nerve block include
1. Masseteric nerve block
2. Deep temporal nerve block
3.Auriculotemporal nerve block
29. MASSETERIC NERVE BLOCK
• The masseteric nerve penetrates the masseter after it passes through the
mandibular notch
• Consequently, the mandibular notch is the ideal point at which the
anesthetic can be delivered, to achieve maximum anesthetic effect on the
masseter muscle. The technique used for this injection is as follows:
• The width of the ramus is visualized by grasping the anterior and posterior
borders with the thumb and middle finger.
• The index finger from the same hand then locates the zygomatic arch at a
point halfway between the thumb and the middle finger.
• The index finger then moves inferiorly until it reaches the mandibular
notch. The needle is introduced posterior to the index finger, while the
practitioner attempts to hit the neck of the condyle.
30.
31. DEEP TEMPORAL NERVE BLOCK
• Deep temporal nerve block is achieved by
fi
rst locating the anterior temporalis muscle.
• This muscle is palpated just above the zygomatic bone, where a depression can be
felt.
• Deep to this portion of the temporalis muscle is the greater wing of the sphenoid bone.
The anesthetic needle is directed into this area until it hits the sphenoid bone.
• Anesthetic is delivered without withdrawal of the needle, because the deep temporal
nerves course along the surface close to the bone
• Johnson described a similar technique, which he used to reduce patients.He entered
the skin from a point super
fi
cial to the glenoid fossa, then moved the needle in an
anterior direction until he contacted the posterior surface of the condylar neck.
32.
33. AURICULOTEMPORAL NERVE BLOCK
• The mandibular condyle is palpated and the neck of the condyle is located
• With patient in the closed mouth resting position, the needle is inserted at
a point inferior and anterior to the junction of the tragus and earlobe
• The needle is advanced till it reaches the posterior part of the neck of the
condyle
• 0.5ml of solution is deposited here
• The needle is advanced to the posterior aspect of the neck of the condyle
depositing 1.0ml of solution slowly over 4 to 5 minutes
• The depth of the needle penetration is approximately 1cm
36. This is the most widely described and
successful technique
It is a bimanual reduction of dislocated
joints
It may be performed with or without
sedation
This technique involves placing gauze-
wrapped thumbs over the external
oblique ridge of the mandible(or the
molars)
HIPPOCRATES
MANEUVER
37. • First a downward directed force
is applied to distract the condyle
down the anterior slope of the
eminence
• Followed by a posteriorly/
backward and superior
distracted force to reposition the
condyle past the peak of the
eminence back into its normal
resting position into the glenoid
fossa
38. • This is a modification of the
conventional technique
• It was proposed by Lowery et al in
2004
• The thumb is placed on the chin
while other fingers are placed on
the occlusal surface of the teeth.
• Here, an anterior fulcrum is created
by applying upward force on the
menton (chin point) with both
thumbs
• Effort is created by placing fingers
on the occlusal surfaces of the
bilateral mandibular molars and
applying a downward pressure
WRIST PIVOT REDUCTION
39. • The contrasting upward force on
the anterior fulcrum and downward
pressure on the mandibular molars
causes an outward rotation/ pivot of
the wrist
• Major advantage over the
conventional is that it utilizes the
forces of mastication rather than
overcoming it
40. • This technique was developed to
overcome the risk of bite injury
during reduction
• It is applicable in unilateral
dislocation
• Here, the dislocation of the
condyle causes extra oral visual
and palpable prominence of the
anterior ramus and coronoid
prominence
EXTRA-ORAL
TECHNIQUE
41. • The clinician places their thumb over
the coronoid process to push the
mandible backward while other
fingers are placed over the mastoid
process to deliver a counteracting
force
• This causes pulling of the mandible
on one side and simultaneous
pushing of the mandible on the other
side which reduces the dislocation
on one side first and then
subsequently on the other side
42. • Gag reflex is induced by probing the soft palate using a mouth mirror or
tongue depressor
• This reflex relaxes the lateral pterygoid through a series of coordinated
neuromuscular activities likely by relaxing the spastic elevator muscles
while simultaneously triggering the depressor muscles
• This reduces dislocation in a natural way
GAG REFLEX
43. POST REDUCTION MANAGEMENT
• This is done to avoid re-dislocation of the
condyle and allow sufficient healing time
• Period of restriction/ immobilization varies
from 3-7 days
• Patient's head is wrapped with an elastic
bandage and instructed to use a closed fist
to restrict excessive mouth opening
• The crepe bandage should not limit
mandibular movement
44. MANAGEMENT OF CHRONIC DISLOCATION
• Chronic recurrent dislocation are repeated episodes of dislocation
where there is abnormal anterior excursion of the condyles beyond the
articular eminence but the patient is able to manipulate back into its
normal position
• The condylar head moves unassisted,forward and backward over the
articular eminence
• The recurrent, incomplete, self reducing, habitual dislocation is termed
hyper mobility or chronic subluxation of the TMJ
• The triad : - ligamentous and capsular flaccidity -eminential erosion
-flattening and trauma
• Seen in the acts of yawning, vomiting, laughing, severe epilepsy,
dystrophia and ehlers-danlos syndrome
45. • The types of management can be classified
based on the degree of invasiveness
• Conservative methods include
1. Physiotherapy
2. Inter-maxillary fixation
3. Chin straps
4. Kinesio taping
5. Barton's bandage
47. • Surgical procedures
1. Capsular tightening procedure
Capsulorrhaphy
2. Creation of mechanical obstacle
Dautrey's procedure
Glenotemporal osteotomy
3. Removal of mechanical obstacle
Eminectomy
Condylectomy
4. Creation of new muscular balance
Temporalis scarification
Lateral pterygoid myotomy
Pterygoid dysjunction
48. CONSERVATIVE PROCEDURES
• Inter-maxillary fixation : immobilization of the jaw for 3-4 weeks and
placing patient on soft diet
• Barton's bandage and chin straps are also place for about 4 weeks
to induce fibrosis of the soft tissue and prevent further dislocation of
the jaw. The barton bandage is placed around the head to provide
support below and anterior to the lower jaw
• Physiotherapy :Isotonic and isometric exercises are done to
strengthen muscles involved in TMJ function
• Kinesio taping: placing a thin elastic tape by lifting the skin which
increases the blood and lymphatic flow, thereby reducing
inflammation and accumulation of pain mediators. It also helps in
better muscle function and joint realignment which is utilized in
reduction of TMJ dislocation
50. MINIMALLY INVASIVE PROCEDURES
• Injection of sclerosing agent : done in a repeated manner into the capsule to
cause fibrosis of the capsule which would eventually limit the mouth opening.
Solutions include - sodium psylliate, sodium tetradecylsulfate,sodium
morrhate, tincture of iodine.
• Use of autologous blood :significant proof that injection of patient's own
blood into the superior joint and pericapsular region following two puncture
arthrocentesis which produces fibrosis restricting opening of the mouth wide.
Procedure : 2-4ml in the upper joint space and 1-1.5ml in the pericapsular
structures repeated twice a week for 3 weeks.Head bandage is required for the
period of 3-4 weeks
• Boutilin toxin A injection :type A weakens the skeletal muscle when injected
by preventing the release of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction.
Injection into the lateral pterygoid is the most effective as it produces forward
movement of the condyle
51. SURGICAL PROCEDURES
CAPSULE TIGHTENING PROCEDURE : TMJ is completely covered
in capsule attached superiorly from the rim of the glenoid fossa and
inferiorly till the neck of the condyle.
• Capsulorrhaphy - Shortening the capsule by removing a section and
suturing it to make it tight. Modifications include suturing of the
capsule to the zygomatic arch or temporalis fasica and overlapping of
the capsule to act as a reinforcement
• Ligamentorraphy - surgical fixation of the lateral ligament of the
capsule to the periosteum of the zygomatic arch followed IMF for one
week
• Limitations : Effective over a short period, Violation of the
intracapsular space causing complications such as hemarthrosis or
degenerative changes.
52. CREATION OF A MECHANICAL OBSTACLE
Impediment in the path of condyle leads to a prevention in excessive
translation of the condyle which causes dislocation.
Limitations : The buttress are not deep or strong enough to impede or
arrest the condyle
• Methods
• Konjetzny method -use of articular disc as a mechanical
impediment bringing forward and suturing anteriorly
• Lindemann method -osteotomy of the eminence turned down in
front of the condylar head to prevent its forward movement.
• Mayor method Placeement of a graft over the eminence to increase
size and height
53. • Dautrey's procedure
-oblique osteotomy of the
zygomatic arch
downwards and forwards
with pneumatization of the
articular eminence. With
gentle pressure towards
the inferior direction, a
greenstick fracture was
created at the zygomatico-
temporal suture. The
segment was then pushed
downwards to create
obstruction for the
condylar movement
54. REMOVAL OF MECHANICAL OBSTACLE
• EMINECTOMY : the rationale for this procedure is to allow the condylar head to
move forward and backward free of obstruction by excision of the articular
eminence. It may be performed unilaterally or bilaterally.
Limitations : excessive forward movement of the condyle than required leading to
stretching of muscles and ligaments and leading to potentially injury to the
articular structures
• CONDYLECTOMY is done by excision of the of the condyle head above the
attachment of the lateral pterygoid muscle.This allows free translation of the
condyle along the articular eminence.It may high or low depending on the
portion (either superior or inferior)of the condyle used.High condylectomy is a
more conservative approach. Condylectomy is the last option as it results in
facial and occlusal deformity.
55.
56. CREATION OF NEW MUSCULAR BALANCE
This involves excison of the insertion of the lateral pterygoid muscle at the condylar
neck and joint capsule
Limitation include difficulty in visualization and the risk of bleeding of the highly
vascular site
• TEMPORALIS SCARIFICATION - a portion of the temporalis is removed to
cause scarring and fibrosis which may tighten the tendon and limit mouth
opening
• LATERAL PTERYGOID MYOTOMY-Silastic sheet is fixed on the anterior surface
of the condyle following severance of the attachment of the lateral pterygoid to
the capsule
• PTERYGOID DYSJUNCTION- the lateral pterygoid along with the pterygoid
plate is detached by separating the pterygoid plates from the maxilla causing a
reduction of the activity of the lateral pterygoid on the condyle so that forward
movement is reduced.
57. COMPLICATIONS OF TMJ DISLOCATION
• Pain
• Impaired aesthetics leading to a change in facial appearance
• Recurrent facial nerve palsy
• Fracture of the condyle
• Damage of the auditory canal
• Damage to major vessels such as the maxillary artery, superficial temporal
artery, masseteric artery , auriculotemporal nerve etc
• Deafness
• Intracranial bleeding
• Brain Contusion
58. CONCLUSION
• The understanding of the anatomy of the TMJ, the causes and
development of TMJ dislocation and the methods of treatment serve
as the foundation for effectively handling TMJ dislocation as a
clinician.
• Therefore, the treatment approach should focus on the individual
patient and be determined by the severity of the condition, the
patient's age, and their prior treatment.
• It is important to analyze the root cause and carefully consider the
underlying factors in order to achieve a long-term solution.
