| description | <p>Condylar hyperplasia should be carefully studied as one of the affectations of the <em>temporomandibul</em>ar.

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.</p> |
