Endoscopic Paramaxillary Approach to the Infratemporal Fossa and Pterygomaxillary Space: Computer Modeling Analysis and Clinical Series

Conclusion The endoscopic paramaxillary approach is a transoral minimally disruptive approach to the ITF and PS that provides excellent surgical exposure for resection of lesions involving these areas. Compared with previously described endoscopic approaches, there are no external incisions; tumor manipulation is straightforward without angled endoscopy, and all areas of the infratemporal fossa and pterygomaxillary space can be accessed.
