Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) ganglionic cyst is an uncommon entity and only a few have been reported in the literature. TMJ ganglion within the external auditory canal presenting clinically as a fluctuating cystic lesion has never been reported. Here, we present a unique case of such a lesion together with otoscopic and radiological images as well as provide a descriptive review of TMJ ganglionic cysts.

SummaryThe feline temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is inherently more stable than the canine or human joint through the close congruity of the feline mandibular fossa and condyle. Rostral luxation of the feline TMJ is resisted by a relatively large bony eminence. Traumatic luxations of the feline TMJ are therefore often associated with fractures of the mandibular fossa and/or condyle (1).The anatomy of the temporomandibular joint shows variations between species. These are highlighted by comparing the human, canine and feline temporomandibular articulations.
