    Journal: Zahn Mund Kieferheilkd Zentralbl; 1976; 64(5):496-517. PubMed ID: 135443.
    Abstract:
    The treatment of condylar fractures is a matter of controversy. After re-examination of 219 patients, who had previous fractures of the mandibular condyle with dislocation, treated by open reduction, conservative or functional methods, the following observations are made: The conservative treatment will lead to the most favourable results. After functional treatment the condylar remodelling is rare and in majority of cases the function of medial pterygoid muscle is not restored.
