The treatment of TMJ ankylosis poses a significant challenge because of technical difficulties and a high incidence of recurrence. The experience of managing one such case is reported in light of a review of the literature on this condition. This report describes a case of a 7-year-old girl with inability to open her mouth, diagnosed with unilateral right bony TMJ ankylosis. Key management principles included adequate removal of the ankylotic mass, gap arthroplasty with interpositional temporalis myofascial grafting and post-operative physiotherapy. The patient maintains a satisfactory maximal incisal opening till the present day. A detailed history, clinical and functional examination, radiographic examination facilitating correct diagnosis followed by immediate surgical intervention, and physiotherapy might be beneficial to restore physical, psychological and emotional health of the child patient with TMJ ankylosis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jscr\/rjac550","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,12]],"date-time":"2023-02-12T22:21:48Z","timestamp":1676240508000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Current trends in managing TMJ ankylosis in children\u2014summing it up with a case report"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"2023","author":[{"given":"Namdeo","family":"Prabhu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery and Diagnostic Sciences, College of Dentistry , Jouf University, Sakaka , Kingdom of Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rakhi","family":"Issrani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Preventive Dentistry, College of Dentistry , Jouf University, Sakaka , Kingdom of Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kiran Kumar","family":"Ganji","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Preventive Dentistry, College of Dentistry , Jouf University, Sakaka , Kingdom of Saudi Arabia"},{"name":"Department of Periodontics and Implantology, Sharad Pawar Dental College and Hospital, Datta Meghe Institute of Medical Sciences, Sawangi Meghe , Wardha, Maharashtra , India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,2,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"2023021520351413600_","first-page":"101","article-title":"Unilateral temperomandibular joint ankylosis\u2014a case report","volume":"15","author":"Shanmugavadivel","year":"2016","journal-title":"IOSR J Dental Med Sci"},{"key":"2023021520351413600_","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"166","DOI":"10.1016\/S1079-2104(99)70267-2","article-title":"Functional restoration by gap arthroplasty in temporomandibular joint ankylosis: a report of 50 cases","volume":"87","author":"Roychoudhury","year":"1999","journal-title":"Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol"},{"key":"2023021520351413600_","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"151","DOI":"10.1016\/S1079-2104(99)70109-5","article-title":"The role of the disk in sheep temporomandibular joint ankylosis","volume":"88","author":"Miyamoto","year":"1999","journal-title":"Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol"},{"key":"2023021520351413600_","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"900","DOI":"10.1016\/0278-2391(89)90371-6","article-title":"Temporomandibular joint ankylosis: surgical treatment and long-term results","volume":"47","author":"Raveh","year":"1989","journal-title":"J Oral Maxillofac Surg"},{"key":"2023021520351413600_","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1145","DOI":"10.1016\/0278-2391(90)90529-B","article-title":"A protocol for management of temporomandibular joint ankylosis","volume":"48","author":"Kaban","year":"1990","journal-title":"J Oral Maxillofac Surg"},{"key":"2023021520351413600_","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"24","DOI":"10.1054\/ijom.2002.0308","article-title":"Temporomandibular joint ankylosis: report of 14 cases","volume":"32","author":"Manganello-Souza","year":"2003","journal-title":"Int J Oral Maxillofac Surg"},{"key":"2023021520351413600_","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"330","DOI":"10.1016\/S0901-5027(99)80075-7","article-title":"Full-thickness skin graft interposition after temporomandibular joint ankylosis surgery: a study of 31 cases","volume":"28","author":"Chossegros","year":"1999","journal-title":"Int J Oral Maxillofac Surg"},{"key":"2023021520351413600_","volume-title":"Surgical Approaches to the Facial Skeleton","author":"Ellis","year":"1995","edition":"1st"},{"key":"2023021520351413600_","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"20","DOI":"10.1016\/S0278-2391(85)80008-2","article-title":"Facial nerve injury during surgery of the temporomandibular joint: a comparison of two dissection techniques","volume":"43","author":"Hall","year":"1985","journal-title":"J Oral Maxillofac Surg"},{"key":"2023021520351413600_","first-page":"227","article-title":"Etiology of ankylosis of temporomandibular joint: analysis of 44 cases","volume":"22","author":"Topazian","year":"1964","journal-title":"J Oral Surg Anesth Hosp Dent Serv"},{"key":"2023021520351413600_","first-page":"469","volume-title":"Pediatric Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery","author":"Kaban","year":"2004"},{"key":"2023021520351413600_","first-page":"74","article-title":"La correcci\u00f3n quir\u00fargica de la anquilosis de la articulaci\u00f3n temporomandibular.
