Objective. This study investigated the correlation of clinical outcomes of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) irrigation with the occurrence and concentrations of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, interleukin (IL)-1 beta, IL-6, IL-8, IL-12, and IL-10 in the washed-out synovial fluid (SF) in patients with chronic closed lock (CCL) of the TMJ.Study design. Thirty-six patients underwent a visually guided TMJ irrigation (VGIR). SF samples were collected immediately before VGIR. The patients were divided into either successful (s-group; n = 25) or unsuccessful groups (u-group; n = 11). The detection rates and concentrations of each cytokine per milligram of total protein in the SF were measured, and then compared between the s- and u-groups.Results. All of the investigated cytokines were detectable with various rates, concentrations, and combination patterns. The detection rate and concentrations of IL-6 were significantly higher in the u-group, and those of IL-10 were significantly higher in the s-group.Conclusions. The investigated cytokines were suggested to be involved in the pathophysiology of TMJ CCL. The results also suggest that IL-6 in the SF is an indicator of an unsuccessful outcome, and that IL-10 is a significant predictor of a successful outcome of TMJ irrigation for CCL.
