Abstract

Aim: Purpose of the study was to compare the outcomes of open and closed reduction of mandibular condylar fractures.

Methodology: The 50 patients with condylar fractures were treated with open and closed reduction as per the requirement.

Results: A higher incidence of unilateral segmented condylar fractures were seen in young adult males. Open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) with a combined approach was the preferred treatment of choice with fewer post-op complications.

Conclusion: ORIF is a suitable technique in the treatment of condylar fractures as it promises few complications.
