Condylar dislocation is not an uncommon condition and occurs when the condyles are displaced anterior to the articular eminence and are unable to reduce back into the glenoid fossa. Long-standing dislocations are difficult to treat with the conservative methods and usually need surgical intervention. In this paper, a long-standing dislocation treated by bilateral extra-oral ramus osteotomy is described and the literature is reviewed.
