초록
영남대학교 의과대학 부속병원 치과학교실에서는 악기능 장치를 이용하여 비관혈적 정복술을 시행한 하악 과두 골절 1례에서 양호한 치료 경과를 보였기에 문헌 고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다. 추후 본 증례에 기초한 다수 증례의 연구가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.
Mandibular condylar fracture is common in mandibular fractures. Unlike other facial, skeletal fractures, most of mandibular condylar neck or head fractures are treated with closed reduction and subsequent functional therapy is essential for preventing complications including ankylosis, arthrosis and growth disturbance. From January, 2000 to September, 2002, we have treated 15 cases of mandibular condylar fractures with closed reduction by using functional appliance with bite block. Among these cases, we report a case of 14-year-old female with mandibular condylar neck fracture, resulted in good clinical and radiographic progress.
