title: [Orthognathic surgery in the treatment of condylar osteochondroma].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To evaluate the effect of orthognathic surgery in the treatment of condylar osteochondroma.
  
  
  METHODS
  A total of 12 cases of condylar osteochondroma were treated with Le Fort I osteotomy, intraoral vertical ramus osteotomy, sagittal split ramus osteotomy and genioplasty.
  
  
  RESULTS
  No recurrence of condylar osteochondroma was observed in all 12 cases two years after the treatments. Facial asymmetry was obviously corrected.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The orthognathic surgery methods are advantageous in improving facial figure without scar development in the treatment of condylar osteochondroma.
