Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Neurosurgery
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • Midfacial degloving is an extended sublabial rhinotomy technique.
  • It provides extensive bilateral access to the midface, nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses, skull base, and clivus.

Observation:

  • The incision is hidden within the mouth, leaving no external scars.
  • This approach is well-suited for large benign tumors like nasopharyngeal fibromas and inverted papillomas.
  • It is also applicable to malignant tumors of the midface.

Findings:

  • The technique allows for comprehensive visualization and access to deep midfacial structures.
  • Surgical access can be extended with supplementary incisions as needed for complex tumor resections.
  • A case study demonstrates the practical application and benefits of this surgical method.

Implications:

  • Midfacial degloving offers a cosmetically advantageous and effective surgical option for complex midfacial tumor extirpation.
  • The technique's adaptability enhances its utility in managing a range of benign and malignant neoplastic conditions.
  • This approach may improve surgical outcomes and patient satisfaction due to the absence of visible scarring.
