Introduction: Temporomandibular joint ankylosis is defined as permanent jaw constriction with an interincisal mouth opening of less than 30 mm, due to bony, fibro-osseous or fibrous fusion. Ankylosis may be uni- or bilateral. The complications of this ankylosis affect the functions of mastication, swallowing and phonation, sometimes facial morphology, and disturb dental hygiene.

Background: Axial spondyloarthritis (SpA) leads to structural bone lesions in every part of the vertebral column. These lesions are only partially visualized on conventional radiographs, omitting posterior parts of the vertebral column and the thoracic spine, that may nevertheless contribute to impaired spinal mobility and function in patients with axial SpA.
Methods: In this prospective and blinded investigation, we assessed the distribution of structural spinal lesions using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the whole spine in 55 patients with axial SpA classified according to the Assessment in Spondyloarthritis International Society (ASAS) criteria.

To analyze the influence of cervical range of motion on the preferable sagittal vertical axis in ankylosis spondylitis (AS)-related thoracolumbar kyphosis following single-level pedicle subtraction osteotomy (PSO). The clinical data of sixty-five AS patients who underwent single-level PSO from February 2012 to November 2018 in the Drum Tower Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School were retrospectively reviewed. Of the patients, 59 were males and 6 were females with a mean age of (34.

Patients with radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (r-axSpA) experience a higher prevalence of fragility fractures, though the pathophysiology of osteoporosis associated with this disease remains poorly understood. The objective of this study was to evaluate the histomorphometric data in r-axSpA patients. Male r-axSpA patients up to 55 years old were enrolled in this cross-sectional study.
