Assessment of temporomandibular joint dysfunction in condylar fracture of the mandible using the Helkimo index

Abstract: Introduction:Condylar fractures of the mandible are functionally important fractures as the condyle of the mandible being a part of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and can lead to TMJ dysfunction if not properly treated.Materials and Methods:This was a cross-sectional study of a total of 33 treated patients with fracture of the mandibular condyle who underwent examination as per the Helkimo index. Their dysfunction was quantified and clinicoepidemiological characteristics were assessed. It was found that maj… Show more

“…The evaluated studies refer to different sports, all of which are contact sports. These frequently lead to injuries, also in the orofacial area [ 21 , 22 ], which can promote the development of temporomandibular dysfunctions [ 23 ]. This can explain, for example, the high values of boxers (77.77% [ 11 ]) or competitive MMA athletes (61.5% [ 12 ]).…”

“…Većina autora se slaže po pitanju indikacija za primenu konzervativnog i hirurškog lečenja preloma kondilarnog nastavka. Handšel, Borman, Rozebom (Rozeboom), Elis, Šiju (Shiju), Ekelt (Eckelt) i Konstantinović u svojim studijama daju prednost hiruškom lečenju ovog preloma, dok Suhas, Santler i Nalić favorizuju konzervativno lečenje (1,8,12,19,26,28,29,30,31,32,33). Studija sprovedena nad dve grupe pacijenata, od kojih je prva lečena konzervativno, a druga hirurški (endoskopski vođenim intraoralnim pristupom), pokazuje da su obe vrste lečenja dale zadovoljavajuće rezultate u terapiji preloma kondilarnog nastavka sa dislokacijom.…”
