ABSTRACT
Maxillofacial osteochondromas are considered benign neoplasms, and compared with their extracranial variant are relatively rare. When they involve the mandibular condyle they can induce significant facial deformity, malocclusion and various temporomandibular joint symptoms. Complete excision is considered the standard of care, but can lead to a reduction in the height of the ipsilateral mandible with resultant complications. In such cases, reconstruction is usually warranted and may be approached in various ways. This case report demonstrates a straightforward, accurate and reproducible approach to reconstructing the TMJ, facial profile and occlusion following resection of a large TMJ osteochondroma, without the need for concomitant orthodontics.
