Some authors describe another intra-capsular ligament of TMJ called the Tanaka ligament (Langton & Eggleton, 1992; Sosa, 2006; Okeson, 2013) originally described by investigator Terry Tanaka in 1980 decade (Tanaka, 1986a; Tanaka, 1986b), this ligament would unite the articular disk firmly to the wall of the mandibular fossa in the temporal bone, which favors the disc to luxate medially in case of impacts (Langton & Eggleton; Sosa).
The kneecap can luxate to the inside (medial) more often in small dogs or to the outside (lateral), a condition more common to large dogs, says Rory J.
