Clinical Trial: RETROMANDIBULAR TRANSPAROTID APPROACH VERSUS TRANSMASSETERIC ANTEROPAROTID APPROACH FOR FIXATION OF SUBCONDYLAR FRACTURE

U.S., Feb. 12 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07403708) titled 'RETROMANDIBULAR TRANSPAROTID APPROACH VERSUS TRANSMASSETERIC ANTEROPAROTID APPROACH FOR FIXATION OF SUBCONDYLAR FRACTURE' on Feb. 05.

Brief Summary: Background: Condylar fracture is one of mandibular fracture which accounts for 20-35%. It is the most controversial fractures regarding diagnosis and management. For several years, surgeons preferred closed reduction over open reduction to avoid surgical complications.
