Severe trismus due to bilateral elongated mandibular coronoid process in an infantile-onset Pompe disease patient: A case report

We report the first case of severe trismus due to abnormal elongation of the coronoid process of the mandible in a child with infantile-onset Pompe disease. Bilaterally elongated mandibular coronoid processes cause abnormal impingement between the coronoid process and the zygomatic process, which in this patient, resulted in a maximal interincisal opening of only 6 mm.
