Abstract

<p>We report a case of osteochondroma of the coronoid process accompanied by long-term restricted jaw opening. The patient, a 51-year-old man, was referred to our hospital because of a 31-year-history of limited mouth opening. The maximum interincisal opening was 20 mm. Panoramic radiography showed a radiographic opacity in the tip of left coronoid process extending to the zygomatic arch. CT showed a left enlarged fungiform coronoid process and deformation of the zygomatic arch. The left coronoid process was excised by an intra-oral approach. Two years and six months postoperatively, the maximum interincisal opening was 42 mm, and there has been no recurrence of the tumor.</p>
