We report here the case of a patient whose diagnosis of active mandibular hypercondylia was retained after a complement with SPECT/CT imaging, the planar bone scan being negative. This case confirms the use of SPECT/ CT as the examination of choice for full assessment of mandibular hypercondylia in adults. Using bone Scintigraphy SPECT/CT improves both sensitivity and specificity of diagnosing this condition. %K Hypercondylia %K Mandibular Condylar Hyperplasia %K Bone Scan %K SPECT CT %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=98591
