    Author: Ziccardi VB, Ochs MW, Braun TW, Malave DA.
    Journal: Compend Contin Educ Dent; 1995 Sep; 16(9):874, 876, 878-80 passim; quiz 888. PubMed ID: 8598023.
    Abstract:
    The treatment of mandibular condylar fractures has remained a controversial subject. Although many fractures can be treated by closed reduction with subsequent physiotherapy, others are treated by open reduction and rigid internal fixation. The management of these fractures in children and adolescents is more controversial. This article will review the treatment options for condylar fractures in children along with indications and contraindications for open repair.
