Transoral (transvestibular-paramandibular) endoscopic approach for benign tumours in the infratemporal fossa
We describe a minimally invasive transoral approach to the infratemporal fossa, by means of endoscopy, which facilitates examination and resection of lesions in this area. Furthermore, we outline the technique employed and a case treated with this approach, which permits a rapid access with very low...

Zusammenfassung: | We describe a minimally invasive transoral approach to the infratemporal fossa, by means of endoscopy, which facilitates examination and resection of lesions in this area. Furthermore, we outline the technique employed and a case treated with this approach, which permits a rapid access with very low patient morbidity, due to the use of endoscopy and of transoral access, instead of traditional transfacial approaches. |
