Abstract
There are many treatment options in management of mandibular condylar neck fractures. Closed reduction is the most conservative
treatment; however, achievement of anatomic reduction is difficult, and there are some risks of mandibular functional impairment.
Open anatomic reduction and internal fixation have some advantages; therefore, many oral and maxillofacial surgeons have
attempted to achieve anatomic reduction through the open approach and extracorporeal reduction and fixation. However,
when using this method, there is some risk of resorption of the fractured mandibular condylar head. Therefore, we designed
a modified extracorporeal reduction technique, without detaching the lateral pterygoid muscle in order to maintain the blood
supply to the fractured mandibular condylar head. We believe that this minor modification may minimize the risk of resorption
of the fractured mandibular condylar head. In this article, we introduce this technique in detail, and report on two cases.
