[The place of condylectomy in the treatment of hypercondylosis].
Condylectomy is an indication of choice for unilateral hypercondylia, whatever the age of the patient, and should be conducted as early as possible and associated with intermaxillary elastic traction. Complementary one- or two-stage operations for mandibular correction are necessary in severe advanced cases. Complementary maxillary osteotomies are very rarely required.
