Abstract
The present study showed that 1) the FNP rate after the RMSA to surgery for condylar fractures was similar to that reported after the transparotid variant; 2) the FNP was transient and completely resolved in all patients; 3) neck and comminuted condylar fractures were statistically associated with increased risk of developing a postoperative temporary FNP; and 4) the final outcome was favorable with no major complications in any of the patients.
