Transglenoidal Approach in Pigmented Villonodular Synovitis of the Temporomandibular Joint.

Pigmented villonodular synovitis is a benign pathology with locally aggressive behavior caused by an uncontrolled proliferation of the articular synovial membranes. Here the authors present a case of pigmented villonodular synovitis of the temporomandibular joint with middle cranial fossa extension and review the different management options including surgery, which have been proposed to target this condition in the recent literature.
