title: CT findings in synovial chondromatosis of the temporomandibular joint.
abstract: The purpose of this report is to document an additional case of synovial chondromatosis of the temporomandibular joint and to present its radiological features with emphasis on the CT findings. It should be stressed that the value of the radiologic examination primarily depends on the extent of calcification of the loose, intraarticular particles.
