Abstract
Today, with the development of modern civilization, the change of industrial structure and the increase of traffic volume and population make the number of maxillofacial injury patients also increase. Especially, the fracture possibilities of mandibular condyle have been increased because of mandibular position and shape. I experienced the case that mandibular condyle fracture caused by gun-shot injury(Bullet had been packed at the opposite condyle of input site) was treated by foreign body removal and condyle open reduction. I will represent that case with the journal review.
