| Popis: |
1. A case of osteochondroma of the temporomandibular joint simulating a unilateral condylar hyperplasia is presented. 2. The need to divide the zygomatic arch to facilitate removal of large tumors is noted. 3. The removal of the growth resulted in normal functioning of the jaws with the disappearance of the features of unilateral hyperplasia. 4. Occlusal grinding is often necessary to correct the compensatory occlusal adjustment that occurs with the rotation of the mandible in these lesions. 5. The possibility of the presence of a tumor must be kept in mind when patients present with symptoms of unilateral condylar hyperplasia. |
