Staw skroniowo-żuchwowy, mimo swoich małych rozmiarów, ma bardzo skomplikowaną budowę. Ponadto jego położenie w pobliżu anatomicznie istotnych struktur stanowi duży problem zarówno w  diagnostyce jego schorzeń, jak i ich leczeniu. Obecnie naprzeciw tym problemom  wychodzi artroskopia – metoda nowa, skuteczna, małoinwazyjna, a przy tym stosunkowo bezpieczna.

Celem pracy jest przegląd piśmiennictwa dotyczącego artroskopii stawów skroniowo-żuchwowych jako metody zarówno diagnostycznej, jak i operacyjnej, wskazań i przeciwwskazań do zabiegu oraz skuteczności leczenia zaburzeń stawu tą metodą.

The temperomandibular joint, despite its small dimensions, has a very complicated construction. In addition, its situation in the vicinity of anatomically important structures poses a large problem both in the diagnosis of its disease as well as its treatment. Currently, in the face of these problems, we have arthroscopy – a new method that is effective, minimally invasive and relatively safe.

This study is a review of the literature regarding arthroscopy of the temperomandibular joints as well as a method both for diagnosis and its use in operative techniques together with indications for and against the procedure, its effectiveness for treating joint disturbances using this method.
