RESUMO
Tracheal intubation for general anesthesia is usually performed using a rigid laryngoscope and reguires the mandible to be opened with forward and upward traction of the patient's jaw which may at times result in the inadvertant injury to temporomandibular joint(TMJ). The injury may include internal derangement, dislocation and hematoma of TMJ; subsequent intraarticular adhesion formation ; dislocation of the meniscus, and rarely auriculotemporal nerve damage from traumatic TMJ dislocation. We studied in 200 patients the size of mouth opening during intubation, the change of mouth opening by tracheal intubation evaluated after operation, and any TMJ disorder arising after tracheal intubation. The results were as follows; 1) The mean size of mouth opening before operation was 42.7+/-7.0 and 40.6+/-6.2mm in male and female patients, respectively. 2) The mean size of mouth opening during intubation was 24.7+/-2.6 and 23.4+/-2.7mm in male and female patients, respectively. When vecuronium was used to prevent fasciculation, the mean was 24.3+/-3.1 and 25.2+/-2.0mm in male and female patients, respectively. 3) One week following operation The mean size of mouth opening one week postoperation was 48.3+/-8.9 and 42.2+/-6.3mm in male and female patients, respectively. When vecuronium was used to prevent fasciculation, the mean size of mouth opening was 55.5+/-5.3 and 43.2+/-6.2mm in male and female patients, respectively. 4) Five patients complained of discomfort around TMJ after tracheal intubation. It seems that upward 45 mandibule lifting by laryngoscope caused trauma to TMJs.

Congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM) of the lung is a rare pulmonary malformation, associated with local aberrations of parenchymal tissue development, which have been classified lung bud anomalies. Lung bud anomalies include infantile lobar emphysema, congenital cyst of the lung, congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation, pulmonary sequestration and bronchogenic cyst. CCAM can enlarge rapidly by ball-valve air entrapment by cysts, lead to mediastinal shift and compression of the heart. compression of opposite lung may result in pulmonary hypoplasia and CCAM causes acute respiratory distress in newborn. We report a neonate with CCAM who were successfuly managed during perioperative period.
