First report of mandibular ramus fracture associated with anterior dislocation of ipsilateral condyle into temporal fossa and locked jaw: A Rarity.

Mandibular ramus fracture is the second least common variant of fracture of mandible. Recently there has been an upsurge in the incidence of ramus fracture due to high velocity road traffic accidents. Ramus fracture is mostly seen in association with other mandibular fracture. This is the first report of mandibular ramus fracture associated with anterior dislocation of ipsilateral condyle into temporal fossa which was treated successfully under local anaesthesia by closed reduction.
