The choice of surgical or non-surgical treatment of mandibular condylar fractures remains
controversial. Earlier trials documented multiple complications of surgical treatment and …

Abstract The management of Condylar Head fractures (CHFs) has historically been with
closed treatments (CTR); however, contemporary studies suggest that Open Reduction and …

This longitudinal study compared functional, anatomical, and quality of life (QoL) outcomes
after closed reduction (CR) versus open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of condylar …

Abstract Purpose Condylar head fractures (CHFs) are increasingly treated by open
reduction and internal fixation (ORIF). However, there are no reports on the three …

Background The aim of this study was to evaluate via finite element analysis (FEA) the
biomechanical behavior of conventional small-fragment screws reinforced by a patient …

Objectives The aim of the present study was to improve the accuracy and reliability of ORIF
in patients with condylar head fractures (CHFs) by developing a design for patient specific …

The aim of this study was to assess whether the resorption of poly-lactic acid pins, used for
condylar head fracture fixation, adversely affect remodelling of the condylar head. A …

Titanium alloys are used in skeletal surgery. However, once bone union is complete, such
fixation material becomes unnecessary or even harmful. Resorbable magnesium materials …

This systematic review was conducted to evaluate the retro-auricular trans-meatal approach
(RA) to mandibular head fractures. Fractures of the mandibular head (8%) are a specific type …

Background The study examines a sample of patients presenting for viscerocranial
computer tomography that does not display any apparent signs of asymmetry, assesses the …
