retromandibular anteroparotid approach for mandibular condylar fracture
the aim of this study was to present and review retromandibular anteroparotid approach and to evaluate its efficacy and safety in reduction and fixation of subcondylar fractures. materials and methods : in the period between january 2013 to february 2014, 10 patients with the age range of 17 to 41 years with a diagnosis of subcondylar fracture at sina general hospital, iran, underwent open trea...
متن کامل[Fracture of the glenoid fossa without mandibular condylar dislocation or fracture: two case reports].
The mandibular condyle region which protects the middle cranial fossa from facial and jaw traumas has an excellent osteomuscular structure. Condylar structures reduce or limit the force of trauma. Most importantly, the condylar neck is the weakest part of the mandible and is easily fractured without dislocation. Generally, this mechanism prevents condylar penetration into the middle cranial fos...
متن کاملCurrent Concepts in the Mandibular Condyle Fracture Management Part I: Overview of Condylar Fracture
The incidence of condylar fractures is high, but the management of fractures of the mandibular condyle continues to be controversial. Historically, maxillomandibular fixation, external fixation, and surgical splints with internal fixation systems were the techniques commonly used in the treatment of the fractured mandible. Condylar fractures can be extracapsular or intracapsular, undisplaced, d...
متن کاملTreatment of Extensively Comminuted Mandibular Fracture with the Aid of a Condylar Positioning Device
We describe a case of extensively comminuted mandibular fracture that extends bilaterally to the angle of mandible successfully treated with the use of condylar positioning device (CPD). This simple, yet effective, technique that almost exclusively described in orthognathic surgery is useful when advance surgical techniques such as pre- or intraoperative landmark identification may not be readi...
متن کاملTensile properties of the mandibular condylar cartilage.
Mandibular condylar cartilage plays a crucial role in temporomandibular joint (TMJ) function, which includes facilitating articulation with the temporomandibular joint disc and reducing loads on the underlying bone. The cartilage experiences considerable tensile forces due to direct compression and shear. However, only scarce information is available about its tensile properties. The present st...
