ABSTRACT
Condylar hyperplasia should be carefully studied as one
of the affectations of the temporomandibular. This condition
is most common in women than in men and
mostly in adulthood. As clinical characteristic it presents
facial asymmetry. For the diagnosis of these cases, tests
that range from simple radiographies to more complex
studies such as computed tomography scans are necessary.
Because of the rareness of this condition in our
setting, we present the case report of a patient with
condylar hyperplasia that was treated at the Maxillofacial
Surgery Service of the Dr. Gustavo Aldereguía Lima General
University Hospital in Cienfuegos.
