Mandibular fractures are relatively easy to diagnose in comparison with other craniofacial fractures. This report presents a trauma patient an unusual split fracture the mandibular corpus, which was missed on panoramic radiograph; however, could be visualized cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Panoramic radiograph may misleading for accurate diagnosis of corpus We suggest that CBCT is crucial and should mandatory all suspected maxillofacial patients.
