Terminology and classification of condylar hyperplasia: Two case reports and review

Abstract

Condylar hyperplasia is characterized by the growth of mandibular condyle. Its etiology and pathogenesis remain controversial. It often occurs unilaterally and leads to facial asymmetry and malocclusion. In the literature, it was also classified according to anomalies accompanied by the growth of other components of the mandible. Differential diagnosis of condylar hyperplasia usually includes tumors of temporomandibular joint. In this article, we discuss the term “condylar hyperplasia” and its classification considering two patients with condylar growth.

Kondiler hiperplazinin terminolojisi ve sınıflandırılması: İki olgu sunumu ve derleme

Abstract

Kondiler hiperplazi mandibüler kondilin büyümesiyle karakterizedir. Etyoloji ve patogenezi tartışmalıdır. Sıklıkla tek taraflı oluşur ve fasiyal asimetri ile maloklüzyona neden olur. Literatürde, mandibulanın diğer komponentlerindeki büyümenin eşlik ettiği anomalilere göre de sınıflandırılmıştır. Kondiler hiperplazinin ayırıcı tanısı çoğunlukla temporomandibüler eklem tümörlerini içerir. Bu yazıda, kondiler büyümesi olan iki hasta dikkate alınarak “kondiler hiperplazi” terimi ve sınıflandırılması tartışıldı

Keywords

• Kondiler hiperplazi, hemimandibüler uzama, hemimandibüler hiperplazi, mandibüler hiperplazi, osteokondroma
