Surgical Management of Double/Triple Mandibular Fractures Involving the Condylar Segment: Our Perspective
A series of surgical cases operated in our unit are considered to analyze and evaluate the different techniques and sequencing employed in the surgical management of double/triple mandibular fractures involving a condylar fracture. Deviating from the normal sequence of reducing and fixing the dentate segment first, we addressed the condylar segment first. A combination of different approaches f...
متن کاملLong-term outcome in the treatment of mandibular condylar fractures.
Background. Fractures of the condylar process of the mandible, whether isolated or coexisting with other injuries, are often difficult to manage. Treatment outcome in patients with mechanical injuries of the temporomandibular joints and fractures of mandibular condylar process, which is an element of this joint, depends mostly when and how treatment is initiated. The goal of our study was to as...
متن کاملEndoscope-assisted fixation of mandibular condylar process fractures.
PURPOSE Reduction and plate osteosynthesis of condylar fractures often require a wide extraoral approach with the risk of aesthetic impairment and possible facial nerve palsy. To avoid complications, the purpose of this pilot study was to use an endoscopic device for the treatment of condylar fractures also allowing for endoscopically assisted plate application. PATIENTS AND METHODS Seven con...
متن کاملManagement of Mandibular Fractures
The treatment of mandibular fractures has been in a constant state of evolution over the past few decades. The most significant advancements related to the management of fractures of the man‐ dible are based on specific technical refinements in the methods of internal fixation. Also there is improvement in the knowledge of anatomy, pathophysiology, pharmacology and biomaterial science which inf...
متن کاملTreatment of mandibular condylar process fractures: biological considerations.
The topic of condylar injury in adults has generated more discussion and controversy than any other in the field of maxillofacial trauma. It is an important subject because such injuries are common and complications of trauma to the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) are far-reaching in their effects. Why are there so many different methods to treat this injury? How can seemingly disparate treatment...
