Surgical Reduction of Chronic Bilateral Traumatic Dislocation of the Mandibular Condyles With Erosion of the Middle Fossa Floor: Case Report With Surgical Video.

Multiple factors predispose a patient to MC dislocation, but we believe the catalyst in this case was significant manipulation of the jaw during endotracheal intubation. A chronic postoperative open bite can lead to much more difficult treatment, given bony erosion and fibrotic tissue formation. This case highlights the challenges of diagnosis and treatment of a bilateral traumatic dislocation and provides a surgical video reference description of repair and resolution.
