Objectives: Clinical and experimental studies show that the etiology of traumatic temporomandibular joint (TMJ) fibrous ankylosis and bony ankylosis are associated with the severity of trauma. However, how the injury severity affects the tissue differentiation is not clear. We tested the hypothesis that...
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of the study was to preliminarily explore the differential expressions of a series of genes regulating bone formation in temporomandibular joint (TMJ) fibrous ankylosis, bony ankylosis and condylar fracture healing. METHODS: The cDNA from either the bo...
Congenital knee ankylosis is a rare condition which might be accompanied with other abnormalities or not. To our knowledge, there is no report on true bony ankylosis of the knee. The only ones in the literature include fibrous knee ankylosis. Thus this seems to be the first presentation of ...
