골관절염은 관절의 연조직, 관절연골 및 연골하 골조직의 합성과 분해 사이의 불균형으로 인한 조직의 변성을 야기하는 관절의 질환이다. 일반적으로 골관절염은 연령에 따라 급격히 증가하고, 여성에서 호발하는 특징을 보이는 것으로 알려져 있지만, 측두하악관절에서의 골관절염의 유병률에 관한 연구는 측두하악관절의 독특한 특성에도 불구하고 정확한 연구가 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 측두하악관절에서 발생하는 골관절염의 실제 성별, 연령별 분포 및 임상적 특징을 알아봄으로 써 병인의 이해에 필요한 기초 자료를 제시하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 2007년 1월부터 12월까지 1년 동안 서울대학교 치과병원에 측두하악장애를 주소로 처음 내원한 4327명의 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 측두하악장애의 진단을 위해 촬영된 orthopantomogram, TMJ tomogram, transcranial radiograph를 이용하여 측두하악관절의 퇴행성 변화를 조사하였으며, 성별, 연령, 골변화 양상에 따른 분포를 분석하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 측두하악장애 증상을 호소하는 환자 4327명 중 883명 (20.4%)에서 퇴행성 변화가 관찰되었고, 남성에서는 177명 (12.6%), 여성에서는 706명 (24.1%)에서 관찰되어 여자에서 호발하는 것으로 관찰되었으며, 이러한 여성 우위의 호발 양상은 모든 연령대에서 관찰되었다. 2. 측두하악장애 증상을 호소하는 환자 중 하악과두의 퇴행성 변화를 보이는 환자의 비율은 연령대가 증가함에 따라 완만하게 증가하였고, 연령별로 구분하여 볼 때에는 여성에서는 연령대별 발생비율의 증가가 통계적으로 유의하였으나 (P < 0.001), 남성에서는 통계적으로 유의하지 않았다. 3. 퇴행성 변화 환자군에서 나타나는 퇴행성 변화의 유형 중, 발생빈도가 가장 높은 형태는 sclerosis였고 (84.6%), 발생 환자 의 평균연령이 가장 높은 형태는 osteophyte였다 (44.8세). 4. 퇴행성 변화의 좌, 우 발생 분포를 보면 좌측에서 호발하였고, 남성 내에서는 좌측, 여성 내에서는 양측에서 모두 발생한 비율이 가장 높았으나, 전체적인 좌, 우 발생 양상은 남녀간에 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 결론적으로, 측두하악장애 환자에서 나타나는 측두하악관절의 퇴행성 변화는 여성에서 호발하고 연령이 증가함에 따라 완만한 증가를 보이며 젊은 연령층의 환자에서도 높은 비율로 발생함을 알 수 있다. 측두하악장애가 젊은 연령층에서 호발한다는 이전의 보고들을 토대로 볼 때 측두하악관절의 퇴행성 변화는 타관절에서 발생하는 퇴행성 변화와는 다른 역학적 특징을 가지고 있을 가능성이 크며, 이러한 사실은 측두하악관절에서 발생하는 퇴행성 변화의 병인을 이해하고 그 치료법을 개발하는데 있어서 매우 중요한 의미를 가진다.

Osteoarthritis (OA), the most common form of arthritis, is a result of both mechanical and biological events that destabilize the normal coupling of degradation and synthesis of articular cartilage chondrocytes and extracelluar matrix, and subchondral bone. Although it is likely that the molecular basis of pathogenesis is similar to that of other joints, additional study of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is required due to its unique structure and function. This study was carried out to evaluate the epidemiologic characteristics of TMJ osteoarthritis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of TMJ OA in Patients with temporomandibular disorders (1405 men and 2922 women whose mean age was $30.2\; {\pm}\; 15.4$ and $33.1\;{\pm}\;15.2$ years, respectively) who had visited the TMJ and Orofacial Pain Clinic of Seoul National University Dental Hospital in 2007. Orthopantomograms, TMJ tomograms and transcranial radiographs were used to evaluate degenerative change of the mandibular condyle. The obtained results were as follows: 1. Degenerative change of the mandibular condyle was observed in 883 (20.4%) of 4327 subjects. The prevalence was significantly higher in women (706 patients, 24.1%) than in men (177 patients, 12.6%), and this significant difference between genders was observed in all age groups. 2. The prevalence of degenerative change of the mandibular condyle in TMD patients showed a gentle increase along with age. Such increase was statistically significant in women (P < 0.001), but not in men. 3. Sclerosis was observed the most frequently in all age groups and the mean age of the patients with osteophyte was the highest among four types of degenerative change. 4. Although men showed degenerative change in the left side more often and women showed degenerative change more frequently in both sides, the difference of distribution in sides between genders was not significant. In conclusion, the prevalence of degenerative change of the mandibular condyle in TMD patients is higher in women than in men, and increases steadily with aging, but not as dramatically as in other joints that show a steep increase in prevalence around the age of 45 years. It can be suggested that the epidemiologic characteristic of OA of the TMJ differs from those of other joints, and that a more extensive study based on the general population is necessary.

문제 정의
This study was aimed to provide clinical information concerning the prevalence of degenerative change of the mandibular condyle based on the radiographic data from initial-visitpatients with temporomandibular disorders (TMDs), and so to raise an issue on the epidemiological characteristics and pathophysiology of TMJ OA.
Based on the clinical experience with such a large number of TMD patients, TMJ OA seems to commonly occur in young patients in their second to forth decade. This study was performed to report these clinical findings of Korea and raise an issue to activate an epidemiological study on the realistic prevalence of TMJ OA. For this purpose, we retrospectively reviewed radiographs taken of 4,327 patients who had had examinations of their TMJ for the first time in 2007, excluding the patients who had ever visited for the examination of TMD-related signs and symptoms during the past 5 years and patients with major deformity, TMJ fracture, and systemic diseases known to affect the TMJ, such as rheumatoid arthritis from the total of 5,739 patients.
제안 방법
Degenerative change of the mandibular condyle was evaluated by reviewing the radiographs including standard panoramic, TMJ panoramic, and transcranial radiographs retrospectively. All three radiographs were routinely taken in the TMD diagnostic procedure. The radiographs were taken into the image plates by OrthopantomographⓇ OP 100 (Instrumentarium Dental, Finland) for standard panoramic and TMJ panoramic radiographs and DXG-100N (Listem, Korea) for transcranial radiographs.
It is also true that social, political, and economical problems are obstacles. Considering the fact that the prevalence of TMD itself increases with age in the young population and then decreases in the elderly37,38) after peaking during middle age, the high prevalence of degenerative change of TMJ in the young TMD patients observed in this study should not be underestimated due to the limitations of the samples or radiographic examinations used in this study. In other words, if TMD symptoms were generally rare in young adults, the high prevalence of degenerative change of young TMD patients should not be so high when interpolated into the general population.
Degenerative change of the mandibular condyle was evaluated by reviewing the radiographs including standard panoramic, TMJ panoramic, and transcranial radiographs retrospectively. All three radiographs were routinely taken in the TMD diagnostic procedure.
The major limitations of this study are that the study sample included patients who visited our clinic for TMJ examination rather than a randomly selected sample from the general population, and that the determination of the degenerative change was made only by plain radiographs. More extensive studies based on the general population and more advanced radiographic examinations, such as cone beam computed tomography, should be performed in order to gain comprehensive knowledge in understanding the epidemiological characteristics of OA of the TMJ.
To evaluate intraexaminer reliability within a single examiner, 30 randomly selected radiographs were examined twice by the same examiner at four week intervals. Cohen’s κ statistics were used to assess intraexaminer reproducibility.
The plain radiographs do not have a high enough sensitivity to apply complicated criteria of decision or overestimate the bony change significantly19). To reduce possible errors due to the inaccuracy of plain radiographs, it would be better to simplify the criteria and increase the sample size as in this study.

All three radiographs were routinely taken in the TMD diagnostic procedure. The radiographs were taken into the image plates by OrthopantomographⓇ OP 100 (Instrumentarium Dental, Finland) for standard panoramic and TMJ panoramic radiographs and DXG-100N (Listem, Korea) for transcranial radiographs. Images were digitalized by scanning of image plates with FCR XG5000 (Fujifilm, Japan).
데이터처리
The occurrence of degenerative change increased with age, and this increase was statistically significant in women (P < 0.001), but not in men, analyzed by chi-square test.
이론/모형
Chi-square tests were performed to analyze the relationship between the frequency of degenerative change and age with regard to gender and side. Odds ratios of gender and age groups for degenerative changes of the mandibular condyles were calculated by a binary logistic regression model. All statistical analyses were performed using SPSS 12.
성능/효과
In the results of this study, odds ratios of age groups with 10’s age group as a reference did not exceed 2.00 and were significant only in 50’s and over 60 years’ age group.
As shown in Figure 1, approximately twice as many women visited the clinic for an initial TMJ examination as men, and most patients were in their 20s. Of all patients, 4,255 (98.3%) patients complained of at least one symptom including jaw pain, joint noise, mouth opening limitation, jaw stiffness, occlusal discomfort, bruxism, joint swelling, subluxation, jaw asymmetry, headache, and phonetic problems. The rest of the patients were referred by other clinicians because of signs of TMDs that patients did not recognize, such as asymptomatic bone change of the mandibular condyles or mouth opening limitation.
The results showed that in both genders, subjects more frequently had degenerative change on the left side, and that the gender differences of distribution of the affected side were not significant. Unilateral involvement was observed more frequently than bilateral involvement of degenerative change of the mandibular condyle.
