Temporomandibular joint ankylosis may be true or false. Most commonly, trauma and inflammatory conditions lead to this condition. Zygomatico-coronoid ankylosis is a rare extra-articular (false) form of ankylosis of the jaw. This condition may follow treated or untreated midface fractures. Coronoid process locking may be overlooked because attention is generally focused on temporomandibular joint. A review of literature has reported 16 cases of this disorder. The true incidence of this condition may be even higher. In this paper, we present an unusual case of posttraumatic bony ankylosis of the right coronoid process of the mandible with the zygomatic arch in a 30-year-old male. This bony ankylosis was produced by a mass of heterotopic bone formed, following inadequate treatment of midfacial fracture. Extra-oral ostectomy of the ankylotic mass followed by immediate postsurgical aggressive physiotherapy produced good long-term functional outcome.

“…In that review, 11 cases were caused by trauma, 2 were caused by infection, and 2 were subsequent to surgical interventions. The two surgical cases occurred after bilateral vertical osteotomy of mandibular rami for correction of prognathic mandible and after tumor resection from the pterygoid space with section of the mandibular body (Lindsay et al, 1966; Troyer, 1971).…”

Mandibular distraction osteogenesis is an increasingly accepted treatment option for severe upper airway obstruction in grade 3 Robin sequence. Complications are rarely reported but can include fracture, pin dislodgement, tooth bud damage, and temporomandibular joint ankylosis. Operative correction of these complications can carry inherent risks of their own. We present a patient who incurred carotid artery dissection and stroke after release of postdistraction coronoid-zygomatic ankylosis for the treatment of mandibular micrognathia.

Ankylosis, between the coronoid process and the zygoma, is a rare occurrence. A review of the literature has disclosed 15 reported cases of this disorder. True incidence of this condition might be even higher. Zygomaticocoronoid ankylosis might have been encountered by many surgeons, and yet it has been misdiagnosed or overlooked.In this article, the treatment of a 14-year-old patient with zygomaticocoronoid ankylosis is presented. With regard to treatment, there are various opinions as to whether the coronoidectomy be performed intraorally or extraorally. In this study, treatment of the patient has been performed via intraoral approach.
