Trial summary

The condylar region is the most frequent anatomical site for mandibular fractures . Condylar fractures constitute 25.5% to 35.5% of all mandibular fractures. The mandibular condyle fracture is a type of fracture that affects the condyle, which is the knuckle-like projection of the mandible (lower jaw) that articulates… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Comparative Study Between the Retromandibular Transparotid Approach and Retromandibular Retroparotid Approach for Open Reduction and Internal Fixation of Mandibular Condylar Fracture.

The condylar region is the most frequent anatomical site for mandibular fractures .

Condylar fractures constitute 25.5% to 35.5% of all mandibular fractures. The mandibular condyle fracture is a type of fracture that affects the condyle, which is the knuckle-like projection of the mandible (lower jaw) that articulates with the temporal bone to form the temporomandibular joint (TMJ).

Read the detailed description

Several approaches have been used for condylar fracture including intraoral, preauricular, submandibular and retromandibular approaches.

The selection of the appropriate surgical approach for condylar neck fracture represents a controversy.

The purpose of this Study is to Compare the outcomes and effectiveness between the retromandibular transparotid approach and retromandibular retroparotid approach for treatment of Condylar Fracture of Mandible.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ORIF through transparotid approachProcedure or surgery

    The Retromandibular Transparotid approach is a surgical method used to access structures in the parotid gland region by making an incision behind the mandible.

  • ORIF through retroparotid approachProcedure or surgery

    Also called ORIF through the Modified Blair Incision

    The Retromandibular Retroparotid approach, also known as the Modified Blair Incision, is a surgical technique used to access structures within the parotid gland region by creating an incision behind the mandible and extending it into the parotid region.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ORIF through transparotid approach and ORIF through retroparotid approach in people with Mandibular Fractures, run by Assiut University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Mustafa Mahmoud Hussien (+201015750092 ext. +201140308095, Urfavdash@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Facial nerve injury (time frame: Up to 6 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Jul 2024.
