Summary

Background: Condylar fracture is a common mandibular fracture which accounts for 25-40%. Nowadays the preference started to change towards open reduction because of the late complications that might happen in case of closed treatment.

A Transmasseteric Anteroparotid (TMAP) approach for open reduction and internal fixation of condylar fractures overcomes the problems of difficult access and facial nerve injury risk of other conventional approaches.

Different plating options are available for internal fixation of the condyle and subcondylar region. Trapezoidal Condylar Plates (TCP) specifically developed for the osteosynthesis of low and high subcondylar fracture. These plates were designed to closely follow the tensile strain lines along the rim of the sigmoid notch anteriorly combined with a posterior arm to parallel the condylar axis free of harmful bending strains.
