Abstract

ASTIGUETA, José Mariano et al. Intraoral approach with endoscopic assistance for mandibular condyle fractures. A case series. Rev. Asoc. Odontol. Argent. [online]. 2021, vol.109, n.3, pp.190-202.  Epub Dec 15, 2021. ISSN 2683-7226.  http://dx.doi.org/10.52979/raoa.1170.

Aim:

To present the experience with a series of cases resolved by an intraoral approach and video-endoscopic assistance for the management of mandibular condyle fractures.

Clinical cases:

Three cases of patients with unilateral mandibular condyle fractures are presented. Two of the cases presented a second line of associated parasymphyseal fracture. The treatment performed was open reduction and internal fixation of all fractures by oral approach. Mid-term and long-term clinical and tomographic follow-ups were performed, with favorable results.

Keywords : Endoscopy; internal fixation; mandibular condyle; mandibular fracture.
