This study aimed to prospectively evaluate the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) functional and morphological changes after mandibulotomy using a reconstructed 3D models of the TMJ. <\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p> Sixteen adult patients diagnosed with oral and oropharyngeal tumors with planned surgical mandibulotomy (test group, 9 patients) or transoral (control group, seven patients) treatments were included in the study. MRI and CBCT images were obtained immediately preceeding surgery and 6\u20138 weeks after surgery. Using the MRI-CBCT registered images, TMJ tissues were segmented at the two occasions by the same operator and 3D models were reconstructed for morphological assessment. Changes across time were measured using the volume overlap and Hausdorff distance of the disc and condyle 3D models. Disc-condyle relationship was measured using point-based and color map analysis. To assess the early functional changes, the Jaw function limitation scale ( JFLS) and the maximum mouth opening were measured. Two-sample Hotelling T<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup> t-test was performed to determine the significance of the morphological and clinical outcomes\u2019 differences between the two groups. <\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p> The two-sample Hotelling T<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup> t-test showed significant differences (T<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup> (df1,df2)\u2009=\u20090.97 (5,26), p &lt;0.01) between the mean values of all outcomes among the 2 groups. The change in disc displacement was significantly different between the two groups ( p &lt;0.05). However, the condylar displacement was not significantly different between the two groups ( p =0.3). The average of the JFLS score was five times larger after mandibulotomy, and was 2 times larger after transoral surgery ( p\u2009&lt;\u20090.01). Patients showed decrease in the average of the maximum interincisal mouth opening by 11\u00a0mm after mandibulotomy, and by 5.4\u00a0mm after transoral surgery. <\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p> The quantitative assessment of the TMJ showed minimal changes of the condylar position and variable degrees of articular disc displacement associated with the paramedian split mandibulotomy. As well, limited jaw functions and vertical mouth opening were noticed more in the mandibultomy group compared to the transoral group in 6- weeks after surgery. <\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/s40463-017-0184-4","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,1,28]],"date-time":"2017-01-28T02:39:45Z","timestamp":1485571185000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Three-dimensional morphological changes of the temporomandibular joint and functional effects after mandibulotomy"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"46","author":[{"given":"Mohammed A.
