This case series reviews 2 patients worked up and treated for unilateral synovial chondromatosis of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). The first was a 58-year-old female evaluated and treated for synovial chondromatosis of the left TMJ using an arthrotomy of the joint to remove the cartilaginous and osteocartilaginous nodules. The second is a 63-year-old male who was evaluated and treated for synovial chondromatosis of the right TMJ with the removal of extracapsular masses and an arthrotomy with intra-joint removal of nodules. Six-year radiographic follow-up demonstrated no recurrence of the pathology in his case. The cases are reviewed in this article, along with a current review of the literature.
