[Temporomandibular joint dysfunction and neurofibromatosis. Apropos of a case].

The authors report one case of Von Recklinghausen's disease localized to the temporomandibular joint capsule and unilaterally associated with other cephalic manifestations. Although no other study, notably a CAT-scan, showed this tumor localization, surgical exploration was imperative and led to exeresis of the lesion which proved to be the treatment of choice.
