The presented anomaly consists of a doubled mandibular condylus in a boy aged 5.5 years. We report this case because of its rare localisation, shape, size and microscopic pattern. It represents a doubled articular process arising from the mandibular processus coronoideus. From the morphologic view the finding is very exceptional. We failed to find any similar case in the literature available. The findings of doubled articular processes (condylus bifidus) previously quoted are of different origin. In this case it was obviously disorder in the differentiation of the mandible within the period when the mandibular ramus basis was formed by the secondary cartilage.
该异常情况表现为一名5.5岁男孩的下颌髁突重复。我们报告此病例是因其罕见的位置、形状、大小及微观形态。它表现为一个源自下颌冠状突的重复关节突。从形态学角度来看，这一发现非常罕见。我们在现有文献中未能找到任何类似病例。先前引用的重复关节突（双髁突）的病例来源不同。在本病例中，显然是在由继发性软骨形成下颌支基部的时期内，下颌骨分化出现了紊乱。
