“…Similar to the findings of Qudah and Bataineh [14], the most common bone to be fractured was the mandible in our series. Of these, 43.9 % of the fractures were found in the condylar region and 24.39 % in the parasymphyseal region [16]. Most of the fractures were neither severe nor complicated and were followed-up by observation only followed by closed reduction with conventional means like acrylic splinting and maxillomandibular fixation by IMF screws, whereas surgical intervention was reserved for only severely displaced fractures.…”

“…De todas las fracturas mandibulares que ocurren en los niños, entre 28,2% y 62% están localizadas en el proceso condilar. 1 En ocasiones las fracturas de cóndilo son difíciles de detectar. Los síntomas y signos son similares a los adultos, y el advenimiento de los scanners de última generación ha simplificado las técnicas de examen radiográfico.…”

“…La dieta blanda, movilización temprana y observación de la oclusión sería para estos autores el tratamiento de elección. 1 Por tanto, aunque la mayoría de los autores clási-cos como MacLennan y Rowe, defienden el tratamiento conservador en estos pacientes, nadie duda que el desarrollo de los sistemas de osteosíntesis permite actualmente solucionar situaciones en las cuales el tratamiento conservador, con abstención terapéutica o bloqueo intermaxilar, resulta insuficiente o difícil de aplicar por las características de la dentición. 5 Vemos que el tratamiento de las fracturas de cón-dilo mandibular es uno de los temas más debatidos y lleno de controversia dentro de la traumatología facial.…”

“…Atribuem a estes resultados, a remodelação condilar relacionada à faixa etária do paciente e a fisioterapia. Todavia, o tratamento conservador apresenta no pós-operatório desvios mandibulares, mordidas abertas anteriores e desordens oclusais 7 . Em estudos comparativos entre tratamentos fechados e abertos para pacientes portadores de fraturas condilares com desvios diversos autores [14][15][16][17][18][19] , relatam resultados pós-operatórios satisfatórios, nos pacientes tratados cirurgicamente, referindo-se à simetria facial, amplitude de abertura bucal, oclusão dentária semelhante à oclusão anterior ao trauma, movimentação mandibular de abertura, lateralidade e protrusão, devolvendo ao paciente a normalização de suas atividades funcionais.…”
