- Abstract
The article describes the case of unilateral coronoid hyperplasia presenting in adolescence. Clinical analysis showed that the patient had a deviation to the right hand side on the mandibular opening. Orthopantomographic examination revealed an elongation of the right coronoid process. A gross enlargement of the right coronoid with impingement upon the inner aspect of the zygomatic bone was manifested in a computed tomography scan. A right coronoidectomy was conducted four years later.
