title: [New endoprostheses for the condylar process of Russian manufacture].
abstract: Experience gained in repair of the mandibular condylar processes with titanium endoprostheses in 6 patients (8 endoprostheses) is presented. The defects were due to improperly healing fractures, ankylosis of the temporomandibular processes, and cancer. Two variants of endoprostheses differing by the fixing device are proposed. One variant is intended for replacement of defects of the condylar process only, the other permits the use of various titanium constructions to replace bone tissue defects in the branch, angle, and body of the jaw after its resection. Good immediate and late results (followed up for up to 14 months) demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed method.
