I have been referred to a surgeon in MD for a microsurgical procedure to remove my dicss and place fat grafts in the joint with post surgical banding for 4 months to distract the joint and promote healing. Something has to be done as the condyle continue to deteriorate readily from a suspected avascular necrosis-pehaps what is left of the disc impeding the blood supply.Has anyone had this procedure and even pehaps with this surgeon? What was the long term outcome? THXX
