An initial 22 months of unsuccessful nonsurgical therapy was followed by a 7-year period during which the following were performed: 12 surgeries of her right temporomandibular joint; one surgery of her left temporomandibular joint; bilateral coronoidectomies; one surgery of her right mandible; and three surgeries of her left mandible. This case is important because although the existence of multiple jaw surgery cases are widely noted throughout the literature, this is the first case report that presents in-depth prospective documentation.
