Unilateral mandibular condylar hyperplasia with ipsilateral masticator muscle and parotid gland hypertrophy: a rare incidental finding on brain MRI [PDF]

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders
Background Mandibular condylar hyperplasia (MCH) is a rare developmental disorder characterized by excessive growth of the mandibular condyle, leading to facial asymmetry, functional impairment, and dental malocclusion.

Unilateral “Inactive” Condylar Hyperplasia: New Histological Data [PDF]

Journal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology
Background: Unilateral condylar hyperplasia (UCH) is characterized by slow progression and enlargement of the condyle, accompanied by elongation of the mandibular body, resulting in facial asymmetry, occlusal disharmony, and joint dysfunction.

Bilateral Condylar Hyperplasia: Importance of Its Diagnosis in the Treatment and Long-Term Stability of Skeletal Class III Correction [PDF]

Diagnostics
Background: Condylar hyperplasia (CH) leads to mandibular overgrowth with anatomical, aesthetic, and functional consequences, particularly affecting facial harmony. It is characterized by severe mandibular prognathism (MP) in bilateral cases.

Condylar hyperplasia: An updated review of the literature. [PDF]

Korean J Orthod, 2015
Condylar hyperplasia (CH) is a rare disorder characterized by excessive bone growth that almost always presents unilaterally, resulting in facial asymmetry. Classification of the different types of CH can differ depending on the authors. Correct diagnosis is critical in determining the proper treatments and timing.
