Purpose The purpose of this study was to determine the rate of facial nerve injury (FNI) when
performing (ORIF) of mandibular condylar fractures by different surgical approaches …

Various studies have evaluated the extent to which athletic injuries contribute to the overall
incidence of facial fractures. In 1 review, sports accounted for between 3% and 29% of all …

Objectives In the present article, we aim to review the main intra-and post-operative
complications associated with two different therapeutic approaches for treating mandibular …

Background There is considerable controversy about whether condylar fractures should be

Since the introduction of rigid internal fixation devices, more and more surgeons favour an
open approach to treating condylar fractures of the mandible in adult patients. Different …

The mandibular condyle is estimated to be involved in 25% to 45% of adult mandibular
fractures. Up to 52% of mandibular fractures involve the condyle in the pediatric population …

Purpose The retromandibular transparotid approach (RMA) to condylar fractures of the
mandible provides excellent access, but can increase the risk of complications. The aim of …

condylar fractures using the retromandibular transparotid approach and to identify risk …

Introduction The retromandibular transparotid approach provides the shortest and the most
direct access to mandibular sub‐condylar fractures. However, this approach is less preferred …

Objective Different modalities have been described regarding the treatment of mandibular
condyle fractures. The most advantageous and safest one is still a topic of discussion. The …
