Abstract
Objective: To present two cases of condylar hyperplasia treated with high condylectomy without disturbing mandibular function. Methods: Two patients – a male and a female with condylar hyperplasia were treated with high condylectomy after appropriate investigations. Results: Both patients had excellent facial appearance, acceptable occlusion and painless temporomandibular joint function. Conclusions: In cases of proven abnormally high growth activity high condylectomy gives an opportunity to restrict excessive growth and examine the condylar area histologically. This surgery in itself may be adequate or may be followed by further surgery.
