    Summary

    This study introduces a medial maxillectomy technique for en bloc tumor removal in the nasoethmoid area. This approach is ideal for preserving facial structures when piecemeal removal is not suitable.

    Area of Science:

    • Surgical Oncology
    • Otorhinolaryngology
    • Head and Neck Surgery

    Background:

    • Nasoethmoid tumors present challenges for complete surgical resection.
    • Traditional methods may compromise cosmetic and functional outcomes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a surgical method for improved visual access in nasoethmoid tumor removal.
    • To evaluate the efficacy of medial maxillectomy for en bloc tumor resection.

    Main Methods:

    • A medial maxillectomy procedure was performed on ten patients.
    • Three patients underwent combined craniofacial surgery for extensive neoplasms.

    Main Results:

    • The medial maxillectomy provided necessary visual access for en bloc removal.
    • The technique was suitable for tumors where piecemeal removal was undesirable.

    Conclusions:

    • Medial maxillectomy facilitates en bloc resection of nasoethmoid tumors.
    • This procedure aids in preserving the eye, palate, and facial appearance.
