BACKGROUND: Mandibular condyle fractures represent 16.5 to 56% of mandibular injuries and remain controversial in management. This bibliometric analysis evaluates the top 50 most-cited studies to identify research trends and gaps. We systematically searched the Web of Science for mandibular condyle fracture studies, analyzing the top most-cited 50 articles by citation counts, authorship, institutions, journals, and keywords using the VOSviewer for bibliometric coupling.
FINDINGS: Studies (citations: 42 to 243) peaked in the 1990s to 2000s, declining after 2015. Germany 22% and the USA 12% led contributions, with the Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery publishing most articles (17 of 50). Dominant keywords included "open reduction" and "osteosynthesis," yet 84% of studies were low-level evidence (levels III to IV). Key contributors were Eckelt U and Lindqvist C, with the Technical University of Dresden as the top institution.
CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCE: The field relies on older, lower-quality studies with stagnant high-impact research since 2015. Future work should prioritize prospective studies to resolve management controversies.
