Children (Basel, Switzerland)·2025

A rare case of bifid mandibular condyle (BMC) was identified in a 36-year-old female with a childhood trauma history. Radiological examination revealed a duplicated left condyle, highlighting this extremely uncommon condition.

Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Bifid mandibular condyle (BMC) is an extremely rare congenital anomaly.
  • Mandibular condyle duplication or lobulation presents diagnostic challenges.

Observation:

  • A 36-year-old female presented with a left bifid mandibular condyle (BMC).
  • The patient reported a history of childhood trauma.
  • Radiological imaging confirmed the presence of two anteroposteriorly situated heads of the left mandibular condyle.

Findings:

  • The case demonstrates a rare instance of bifid mandibular condyle.
  • The anomaly involves duplication of the mandibular condyle's head.

Implications:

  • Understanding the etiology of BMC, including potential links to trauma, is crucial.
  • The consequences of this rare condylar anomaly warrant further investigation.
  • This case contributes to the limited literature on bifid mandibular condyle.
