The mandible is the largest and strongest of the facial bones. Mandibular bone fracture is the tenth most common fracture in the human body and second most of the facial bones next only to nasal bones. Among the mandibular bone fractures, condylar region is the most frequent site accounting for about 25-35 %. 1 Condylar fractures are usually the result of a direct blow to the chin or to the lat...

Distal humeral fractures are common fractures especially in immature small breed dogs. The pathogenesis is still unknown. For this study, a three- dimensional bone model of the canine elbow was created and finite element analysis performed in order to determine the relationship between fracture type and bone interactions. Fused and non-fused humeral condyles were considered. A failure criterion...

t-condylar fracture of distal humerus in young children is very rare. pure physeal fractures of the olecranon are also rare. we report on an extremely rare case of concomitant ulecranon fracture, ipsilateral segmental humerus and intercondylar humerus fracture (type iii) in a skeletally immature patient.

BACKGROUND To determine the prognosis of fractures of the mandibular condyle after closed treatment. METHODS Patients (n = 144) with a fracture of the mandibular condyle, all treated closed, were included in the study. Fracture types and position of the fracture parts were determined on radiographs. Follow-up was after 12 months in which the average pain, experienced during the last week (vis...

In the treatment of mandibular condyle fracture, conservative treatment using closed reduction or surgical treatment using open reduction can be used. Management of mandibular condylar fractures remains a source of ongoing controversy in oral and maxillofacial trauma. For each type of condylar fracture,the treatment method must be chosen taking into consideration the presence of teeth, fracture...

Condylar fractures are among the most frequent fractures in the context of traumatic lesions of the face. The management of condylar fractures is still controversial, especially when fractures occur in children: if overlooked or inappropriately treated, these lesions may lead to severe sequelae, both cosmetic and functional. The therapy must be careful because severe long-term complications can...

Purpose; Delayed presentation of lateral condylar fractures of the humerus is relatively common in the developing regions of the world. These fractures are difficult to manage because of the displacement and fibrosis around the condylar fragment secondary to the delay. There is a paucity of literature concerning the management of these fractures. An oft repeated finding is the requirement of ex...

Abstarct: Treatment of fractures of the mandibular condyle fractures varies among various centres.approaches for treating condylar fracture is still a dilemma, The aim of this article is to determine the safety and efficiency of surgicaltreatment using a transparotid approach for direct plating The fractures were treated surgically with a transparotid face lift orretromandibular approach using ...

This following case report describes the open reduction, internal fixation and the reconstruction of an extensive comminuted mandibular fracture with bilateral condylar fractures in a 19-year-old male patient with an intellectual disability and autistic disorder. He suffered fall trauma, resulting in shattered bony fragments of the alveolus and mandibular body between both mandibular rami, the ...
