What is a condyle fracture?
Condylar fractures Fractures limited to the condyle are also called intracapsular fracture because the joint capsule extends usually inferiorly to the condylar neck. Condylar neck fractures occur inferior to the area where the joint capsule attaches to the bone; the neck of the condyle is narrower than the condyle.
