Abstract
We describe a case of maxillofacial trauma in a pediatric patient in whom the mandibular condyle was superolaterally displaced into the temporal fossa, medial to the zygomatic arch which was intact. In addition, there was an associated mandibular symphyseal fracture. To our knowledge, this case is the first of its kind to be reported in the literature. We also observed a complication in the form of development of ankylosis in the involved joint which required another surgery.
