Surgical Outcome of Mandibular Swing Approach for Infratemporal Fossa Tumors
Infratemporal fossa masses are rare. The largest series is probably of Fisch describing his approaches in 51 patients.1 There are numerous approaches for these masses with their own pros and cons. For instance, Fisch type C2 approach provides good exposure but is associated with permanent hearing loss. Preauricular transzygomatic, maxillary swing,3 and transantral4 approaches provide good expos...
متن کاملThe Transzygomatic Transmandibular Approach to Infratemporal Fossa
The infratemporal fossa is a deep quadrangular space located at the inferior aspect of the middle cranial fossa. Numerous surgical approaches have been described to gain access to benign and malignant pathology of this anatomical area. The transzygomatic transmandibular approach provides excellent wide exposure of the infratemporal space, for resection of tumours afflicting this region.
متن کاملOutcome of resection of infratemporal fossa tumors.
BACKGROUND A variety of tumors arise in or extend to the infratemporal fossa. We investigated the outcome of surgical management of these tumors. METHODS We conducted a retrospective review of a craniofacial approach to resection of infratemporal fossa tumors from 1992 to 2008 in a cancer center. RESULTS Forty-three patients underwent resection of a infratemporal fossa tumors (68% men). Med...
متن کاملEndoscopic endonasal approaches to infratemporal fossa tumors: a classification system and case series.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To propose a clinically applicable anatomic classification system describing three progressive endoscopic endonasal approaches (EEAs) to the infratemporal fossa (ITF) and their potential sequelae. Overall feasibility and outcomes of these approaches are presented through a consecutive case series. STUDY DESIGN Description of classification system for EEAs to the ITF and ...
متن کاملImaging of Parapharyngeal Space and Infratemporal Fossa
Cross-sectional imaging is an indispensable tool in the investigation of parapharyngeal space and infratemporal fossa pathologies. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging exquisitely display the complex anatomy of this region and provides accurate spatial localization of pathology, differential diagnosis and vital information for treatment planning.
