Abstract

A case of osteochondroma of the right mandibular condyle in a 47-year-old woman is presented. Instead of condylectomy, surgical resection was performed, resulting in fewer functional changes and less dysfunction of the temporomandibular joint but recurrence within 12 months after surgery.
