Title: Osteochondroma of the mandibular condyle mimicking TMJ syndrome: clinical and therapeutic appraisal of a case. Author: Gingrass DJ, Sadeghi EM. Journal: J Orofac Pain; 1993; 7(2):214-9. PubMed ID: 8358368.

While clinical and pathologic features of this lesion are discussed, further emphasis is placed on the surgical management and immediate reconstruction with autogenous costochondral grafting.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
