Kondiler Hipoplazi ile Birlikte Mandibular Koronoid Aplazi: Literatür Taraması ile Çok Nadir Bir Olgu

Abstract

Mandibular coronoid aplasia is defined as the absence of the coronoid process and hypoplasia is defined as defective or underdeveloped coronoid process. Hypoplasia of the mandibular condyle means that the condyle is smaller than normal. Both of these situations are very rare in the literature. In the literature, condylar hypoplasia is usually associated with coronoid hyperplasia and is seen together. The case report we prepared is a case of unilateral coronoid aplasia with condylar hypoplasia, which is not associated with the syndrome, and is the second case in the literature in this way. In the clinical examination of a 38-year-old female patient, a decrease in the right vertical face height and a deviation to the right at the chin tip were observed. As a result of radiological evaluation, right coronoid process aplasia and right condyle hypoplasia were observed.
