  • Title: Osteoma of mandibular condyle as cause of acute pain and limited-mouth-opening: case report.
    Author: Yonezu H, Wakoh M, Otonari T, Sano T, Hashimoto S, Uchiyama T.
    Journal: Bull Tokyo Dent Coll; 2007 Nov; 48(4):193-7. PubMed ID: 18360106.
    Abstract:
    In benign tumors in the mandibular condyle such as osteoma and osteochondroma, symptoms such as pain and limited-mouth-opening are rarely observed. Therefore, these tumors are often detected after the development of changes in occlusion and mandibular midline deviation. We encountered a very rare patient with mandibular condyle osteoma who showed acute pain and markedly limited-mouth-opening.
