Abstract

Abstract. Bifid Mandibular condyle is a rare case, which is usually diagnosed after radiological examination or after physical examination of a patient who refers with temporomandibular joint disorders and pain. It is usually unilateral. A bifid mandibular condyle and mandibular dislocation were diagnosed in a 6-year-old boy who presented difficulty in closing his mouth. The patient had a history of trauma, due to a fall while running three months ago. Extracondyle was found to be located bilaterally close to the superomedial region of the zygomatic arch and was seen to be stuck at the temporal fossa. In this case, the extracondyle pulled the real mandibular condyle to the anterior by settling at zygomas’ superomedial region. In this case, bifid mandibular condyle was the reason for mandibular dislocation. Key words: Bifid mandibular condyle, mandibular dislocation, bifid condyle, temporomandibular joint
