title: [The results of the surgical treatment of fractures of the mandibular condyle in children].
abstract: The results of surgical treatment of fractures of the mandibular condyle are analyzed in 36 children (39 surgeries) aged 3 to 17; 33 of the operations were carried out in fractures complicated with the dislocation of the condylar head. Reposition and osteosynthesis of the fragments were carried out in 17 cases, replantation of the condyle in 10, and arthroplasty of the temporomandibular joint in 12 patients. Good late anatomico-functional and esthetic results were achieved in 84.6% of cases; this is explained by a differentiated approach to the choice of surgical strategy, an effective system of rehabilitation measures, including early exercise, orthodontic treatment, and low-frequency electromyostimulation.
