title: [Arthroscopy of the temporomandibular joint].
abstract: Arthroscopy was introduced in 1975, as a method for the diagnosis and treatment of the most common conditions involving the temporo-mandibular joint, with ample advantages over more sophisticated diagnostic techniques currently developed. The object of this report is to describe this method of diagnosis and treatment--arthroscopic technique--and list findings from 15 patients suffering from assorted abnormalities of the temporo-mandibular joint.
