چکیده
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to define the coronoid-condylar index (CCI). MATERIALS AND METHODS The material for studies comprised 26 patients. Thirteen patients were treated for bilateral coronoid hyperplasia. The remaining 13 patients were included in the control group. Based on 3D CT measurements, the coronoidcondylar index (CCI) was calculated and assessed statistically. RESULTS In patients with coronoid hyperplasia mean CCI was 1.25, while in the control group it was 1.00. CONCLUSION The proposed CCI can be used for the evaluation of anomalies of the mandibular coronoid processes.

The elongation and enlargement of the coronoid processes in Coronoid Hyperplasia (CH) are caused by an overgrowth of normal mature bone. The main clinical feature in unilateral cases may not be reduction in mandibular opening but rather progressive facial asymmetry, a mobile lump above the zygomatic arch or mandibular deviation to the affected side during opening. In current report, we are pres...
