MANIFESTATIONS OF PATHOLOGY OF ORGANS OF THE URINARY SYSTEM IN PATIENTS WITH TEMPOROMANDIBULAR JOINT DISEASES

Abstract

Observation results of the 222 patients with the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) diseases, with the average age of 26.3±8.0 are presented in this article. Manifestations of development anomalies and other diseases of kidneys and urinary bladder, which were revealed in examinations of the main group, allow make an assumption of the existence of interrelation between pathological processes in the TMJ and diseases of urinary system. Changes in the system of connective tissue (CT) could underlie the urinary system diseases. As innate inferiority of CT defines the concomitant character of the pathology, the aim of the work is to study the changes in urinary system of patients with the diseases of TMJ. The examination of the patients was held to study the ones with the diseases of TMJ. The obligatory methods were orthopantomography with the examination of heads of mandible, roentgenography of TMJ with open mouth according to Parma method, computer tomography or MRT of TMJ, iridomicroscopy. Iridobiomicroscopy was made for the diagnostics of genetically-determined state of CT of organism, about which the structure of eye iris (EI) and the possible display of the pathology of urinary system speaks.
