Management of trismus with rostral mandibulectomy may be associated with a good return to function, including prehension and ingestion of food, and restoration of normal grooming activity. Rostral mandibulectomy could be considered for animals with trismus for other aetiologies such as masticatory myositis where other management options are not available.
