CT images demonstrate an apparent cortical discontinuity in the roof of the right mandibular fossa, spanned a width of approximately 4,0 mm anteroposterior. Images obtained with the mouth closed show the mandible's condyle in its usual position centered on the mandibular fossa; When the mouth is open, the condyle moves anteriorly under the center of the articular eminence. There is earwax (cerumen) within the right external auditory canal. Peripheral mucosal thickening and mucous retention cysts/polyps in both maxillary sinus.
Impression: These findings are compatible with an apparent discontinuity of the roof of the right mandibular fossa.
