Bilateral Mandibular Condylar Fractures with Associated External Auditory Canal Fractures and Otorrhagia
نویسنده
چکیده
A rare case of bilateral mandibular condylar fractures associated with bilateral external auditory canal fractures and otorrhagia is reported. The more severe external auditory canal fracture was present on the side of high condylar fracture, and the less severe external auditory canal fracture was ipsilateral to the condylar neck fracture. A mechanism of injury is proposed to account for such findings.
