Abstract

Fractures of the coronoid process are uncommon and can easily be missed. Coronoid fracture may manifest as simple, linear line with minimal displacement. If the periosteum is traumatized, the degree of displacement may increase. Restricted mouth opening and mandibular movement, malocclusion, and swelling below the zygomatic arch may be evident. The decision of treatment plan should be based on the fracture pattern, time of the fracture, the presence or absence of concomitant fractures, and clinical symptoms. Coronoid fractures are generally managed conservatively, a few cases require surgical intervention. A rare case of fracture of the coronoid process caused by trauma of the temporalis muscle is described.

Özet

Maksillofasiyal bölgede meydana gelen kırıklar içerisinde koronoid fraktürleri, çok az bir yüzdeyi kapsar. Genellikle basit, çizgisel ve az deplasman içeren kırıklardır. Eğer periost zedelenmişse temporal kasın kontraksiyonu ile bu deplasman oranı artabilmektedir. Yaralanmanın şiddetine bağlı olarak, oklüzyonda düzensizlik, çapraz kapanış, alt çene hareketlerinde kısıtlılık, zigomatik ark bölgesinde hafif/orta şişlik gibi semptomlar meydana gelebilir. Tedavi protokolü, travma sonrasında geçen süreye, ağız açıklığı miktarına, kırığın lokasyonuna, kırık tipine ve ilave kırıklara göre değişmektedir. Tedavide genellikle konservatif yaklaşımlar uygulanmakla beraber nadir olarak cerrahi operasyon gerekmektedir. Bu raporda, düşme travması sonucu 15 gün devam eden ağız açma kısıtlılığı şikayetiyle kliniğimize başvuran izole unilateral koronoid proses fraktürü olgusu ve tedavisi literatür derlemesi eşliğinde sunulmuştur.
