“…This is known as “Dautrey's procedure.” [ 6 ] However, sometimes, recurrence presents because the obstruction is always lateral to the pole of the mandibular condyle, thereby allowing the condyle to dislocate medially. [ 7 ] Furthermore, the down fractured arch creates a dip over the malar prominence. [ 7 8 ]…”

Rationale: The rationale was to establish a permanent surgical solution for nonreducing dislocations of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). Patient Concerns: The patient presents with a long-standing history of chronic subluxation of the TMJ bilaterally, with the need to forcibly manipulate and reduce the dislocated jaw. Diagnosis: Chronic recurrent dislocation of the TMJ. Treatment: A modified Dautrey's procedure was performed on the right side, with the osteotomized segment being transferred medially and inferiorly. Outcome: After 5 years of follow-up, there was no incidence of recurrent dislocation. Take-away Lesson: This modification is a viable option in both unilateral and bilateral reducing and nonreducing dislocations.
