The 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 کاملQuantitative analysis of endoscopic endonasal approaches to the infratemporal fossa.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS The operative management of infratemporal skull base lesions is challenging. Expanded endonasal approaches to this area can decrease surgical morbidity. Access lateral to the natural nasal corridor can be achieved via a middle meatal antrostomy, medial maxillectomy complemented by a septotomy, or anteromedial maxillotomy (i.e., Denker's approach). We sought to compare the ...
متن کاملEndoscopic versus Open Approach to the Infratemporal Fossa: A Cadaver Study.
Introduction Various lateral and anterior approaches to access the infratemporal fossa (ITF) have been described. We provide our observations regarding the endoscopic transpterygoid and preauricular subtemporal approaches, listing their respective advantages and limitations through cadaveric dissection. Methods A cadaver study was performed on five adult specimens. An endoscopic transpterygoid ...
متن کاملEndonasal transpterygoid approach to the infratemporal fossa: correlation of endoscopic and multiplanar CT anatomy.
BACKGROUND The infratemporal fossa anatomy, from an endoscopic standpoint, is poorly understood. Our purpose was to design an anatomic model that illustrates the anatomy of the infratemporal fossa from the endoscopic standpoint and serves as a training model for surgeons interested in pursuing this endeavor. METHODS Red and blue silicone dyes were respectively injected into the great vessels ...
متن کاملEndoscopic Denker's approach for resection of lesions involving the anteroinferior maxillary sinus and infratemporal fossa.
INTRODUCTION With continued advances in endoscopic techniques, recent years have witnessed significant innovation in surgical approaches to sinonasal and skull base pathology. A substantial number of open surgeries have been supplanted by endonasal procedures, and the spectrum of applications for such less-invasive methods has expanded considerably to encompass progressively larger, more comple...
