Abstract
Osteoma is a rare, asymptomatic, and slowly growing benign tumor of bone. Upon reviewing the literature, only 21 cases were previously reported in the mandibular condyle. A 19-year-old male patient presented to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery of Ain Shams University complaining of hypomobility and facial asymmetry involving the lower jaw. He stated that he was involved in a road traffic accident (RTA) and sustained a traumatic injury to the head a few years ago. Upon examination, it was noticed that the chin deviated to the right side with some discomfort during function. Computed tomography scans revealed the presence of a hyperdense mass medial to the right condylar pole. Condylectomy was carried out using a preauricular approach. A diagnosis of osteoma was confirmed histopathologically. The defect was reconstructed using the coronoid process as an autogenous-free graft.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Craniofacial Surgery serves as a forum of communication for all those involved in craniofacial surgery, maxillofacial surgery and pediatric plastic surgery. Coverage ranges from practical aspects of craniofacial surgery to the basic science that underlies surgical practice. The journal publishes original articles, scientific reviews, editorials and invited commentary, abstracts and selected articles from international journals, and occasional international bibliographies in craniofacial surgery.
