The craniofacial approach offers a safe and effective method for removing paranasal sinus and orbital tumors. This technique provides excellent cosmetic results and good palliation, even for extensive or previously inaccessible tumors.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Neurosurgery
  • Otolaryngology

Background:

  • Paranasal sinus and orbital tumors present significant surgical challenges.
  • Traditional surgical approaches may have limitations in achieving complete tumor resection and optimal cosmetic outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the craniofacial approach for tumors of the paranasal sinus and orbit.
  • To assess postoperative morbidity, mortality, cosmesis, and palliation in patients undergoing this procedure.

Main Methods:

  • A retrospective review of twenty patients who underwent the craniofacial approach for tumor excision over a seven-year period.
  • Analysis of surgical outcomes, including complication rates, survival, and aesthetic results.

Main Results:

  • The craniofacial approach demonstrated low postoperative morbidity and mortality rates.
  • Excellent cosmetic results were achieved post-surgery.
  • Effective palliation was observed in cases of extensive disease.
  • Large and previously inaccessible tumors were successfully resected.

Conclusions:

  • The craniofacial approach is a highly advantageous surgical technique for paranasal sinus and orbital tumors.
  • It is recommended as the treatment of choice due to its safety, efficacy, and favorable outcomes.
