  Fig. 1 Five surgical approaches to mandibular condyle fracture: direct reduction and fixation via the submandibular approach (A), Dr. Nam's method (B), direct reduction and fixation via the endaural approach (C), intraoral direct reduction and fixation with an angled driver (D), and intraoral reinsertion after extraoral fixation of the fractured fragment (E). Revised from the article of Kim et al. (J Korean Assoc Maxillofac Plast Reconstr Surg 2008;30:72-82)3.
