Management of arthroscopic perforation of the middle cranial fossa: a case report.

Complications during temporomandibular joint arthroscopy have been described widely. However, while perforation of the neighbouring anatomical structures, such as the cranial fossa, is a possibility, perforation of the middle cranial fossa and its arthroscopic management have not been reported previously. This report describes a case of middle cranial fossa perforation diagnosed intraoperatively and its immediate arthroscopic management.
