Fracture of the Coronoid Process Associated with Frontosphenoidal Fractures
Abstract
:- Intramuscular: where the fracture fragment is within the investing fascial attachment of the temporalis muscle.
- Submuscular: where the fracture is below the musculotendinous attachment. In these cases, there may be superior and medial displacement of the fragment.
