A screw and wire assisted coronoidectomy procedure: A technical note - 09/12/23
Abstract |
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) ankylosis and oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF) often exhibit elongated hyperplastic coronoid processes with fibrous attachments to the temporalis muscle. In managing this condition, a vital step involves performing a coronoidotomy or coronoidectomy alongside the primary surgical procedure. While coronoidectomy is preferable due to reattachment issues, its complexity arises from the thickened and elongated coronoid process. Our technical note introduces a screw and wire assisted coronoidectomy method, found to be efficient, replicable, and time-saving.
