Title: Chondrosarcoma of the mandibular condyle. Report of a case with special reference to radiographic features. Author: Nortjé CJ, Farman AG, Grotepass FW, Van Zyl JA. Journal: Br J Oral Surg; 1976 Nov; 14(2):101-11. PubMed ID: 1070334. Abstract: A case of chondrosarcoma of the mandibular condyle is described. With carefully taken tomographs, a diagnosis of chondrosarcoma of the mandibular condyle can be made with some degree of certainty, on radiological evidence alone. Chondrosarcomata of the mandibular condyle may manifest with the typical symptoms of the temporomandibular joint dysfunction syndrome. Tumours of the condyle can reach a large size without producing clinically obvious swellings. The literature pertaining to chondrosarcoma of the mandibular condyle is reviewed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
