The people at highest risk were middle-aged men. Fall from height was the most prevalent cause of mandibular condylar injury in mountainous urban China. It took 12.58 +/- 0.35 days of hospitalization for the treatment. Most of the patients had other associated maxillofacial injuries (71.08%) which were mostly located at symphysis and parasymphysis (44.59%). The fractures were mostly caused by fall from height (60.84%) and were located at the condylar neck (53.61%). The average age of the patients was 37 years. Male patients (76.51%) outnumbered female patients (23.49%) in this cohort. Most of the patients had unilateral mandibular condylar fractures (74.7%). These data were statistically analyzed to describe the epidemiology of mandibular condylar fracture. Among the fracture of head of mandibular condyle, 21.28% of the patients had the fracture segments removed. These patients had undergone open reduction and internal fixation with either miniplates or lag screws. This included aetiology, characteristics of fracture, time, age, sex, associated injuries, and hospital utilization of 166 patients with 208 mandibular condylar fractures. Data of all patients who underwent surgical management between 20 were collected. This study retrospectively describes the demography, etiology, fracture characteristics, and hospital utilization of surgically treated mandibular condylar fractures in a tertiary referral hospital in urban China in past five years.
Hence, maxillofacial surgeons should be familiar with epidemiology of mandibular condylar fracture. Demography of the patients, causation, and characteristics of the fracture depends on various socio-economic factors. Mandibular condylar fracture is one of the commonest maxillofacial fractures treated by maxillofacial surgeons. Thapa, Swosti Wang, Jun Hu, Hong-Tao Zhang, Fu-Gui Ji, Ping
Statistical difference was observed between these 2 groups (P condyle fractures should be treated by surgical reduction with the maintenance of the attachment of lateral pterygoid muscle, which is beneficial to repositioning the dislocated condyle to its original physiological position, to closure of the mandibular lingual gap, to restore the mandibular width.Įpidemiology of Surgically Managed Mandibular Condylar Fractures at a Tertiary Referral Hospital in Urban Southwest China.
Seventeen of 22 condyle fractures were repositioned in the surgery group, whereas 4 of 22 condyle fractures were repositioned in the close treatment group. The surgical effect between these 2 groups was compared based on clinical examination and radiographic examination results. Twenty-two sites were treated by open reduction, and all the medial condylar fragments were fixed with titanium screws whereas the other 22 sites underwent close treatment. Twenty-eight patients with MSF&DICF were included in this study. To evaluate the treatment methods of mandibular symphyseal fracture combined with dislocated intracapsular condylar fractures (MSF&DICF) and to compare the effect of different treatment methods of condylar fractures.
