Open reduction and internal fixation of extracapsular mandibular condyle fractures: a long-term clinical and radiological follow-up of 25 patients [PDF]

, 2014
Background: During the last 2 decades, many studies on the treatment of mandibular condyle fracture have been published. The incidence of mandibular condyle fractures is variable, ranging from 17.5% to 52% of all mandibular fractures.

Giant cell reparative granuloma of the mandibular condyle: A rare presentation and literature review

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Cases, 2018
Giant cell reparative granuloma (GCRG) is an extremely rare occurrence in the mandibular condyle. Here we describe the case of a 41-year-old man with a GCRG of the right mandibular condyle.

Finite element analysis of feeding in red and gray squirrels (Sciurus vulgaris and Sciurus carolinensis)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Invasive gray squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis) have replaced the native red squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris) across much of Great Britain over the last century. Several factors have been proposed to underlie this replacement, but here we investigated the potential for dietary competition in which gray squirrels have better feeding performance than ...

Quantitative assessment of masticatory muscles based on skull muscle attachment areas in Carnivora

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Masticatory muscles are composed of the temporalis, masseter, and pterygoid muscles in mammals. Each muscle has a different origin on the skull and insertion on the mandible; thus, all masticatory muscles contract in different directions. Collecting in vivo data and directly measuring the masticatory muscles anatomically in various Carnivora ...

Association between the Temporomandibular Joint Morphology and Chewing Pattern

Diagnostics, 2023
This study aimed to investigate whether the morphology of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is associated with chewing patterns while considering skeletal morphology, sex, age, and symptoms of temporomandibular disorder (TMD).

Idiopathic Mandibular Condyle Resorption

Cureus, 2020
Idiopathic mandibular condylar resorption is a rare condition in which the mandibular condyle of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) becomes resorbed and thus reduces in size and volume. This leads to TMJ dysfunction that commonly requires surgical correction; however, more conservative interventions can also be utilized.

Mandible composition and properties in two selected praying mantises (Insecta, Mantodea)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Insects process their food with their cuticle‐based mouthparts. These feeding structures reflect their diversity and can, in some cases, showcase adaptations in material composition, mechanical properties, and shape to suit their specific dietary preferences.

Unilateral acquired condylar hypoplasia and coronoid hyperplasia of the mandible

Medical Journal of Dr. D.Y. Patil University, 2017
The condylar articular cartilage is a mandibular growth site. As a result, developmental abnormalities at this location manifest as altered growth on the affected side of the condyle, mandibular ramus, mandibular body, and alveolar process.

Indian hedgehog: A mechanotransduction mediator in condylar cartilage [PDF]

, 2004
Indian hedgehog (Ihh) is a critical mediator transducing mechanical signals to stimulate chondrocyte proliferation. To clarify the cellular signal transduction pathway that senses and converts mechanical signals into tissue growth in mandibular condyle ...

“Visiting scientist effect”? Exploring the impact of time‐lags in the digitization of 2D landmark data

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Measurement error (ME) in geometric morphometrics has been the subject of countless articles, but none specific to the effect of time lags on landmark digitization error. Yet, especially for visiting scientists working on museum collections, it is not uncommon to collect data in multiple rounds, with interruptions of weeks or years. To explore
