Abstract:
Lateral rhinotomy, midface degloving approach and medial maxillectomy are described. Lateral rhinotomy allows for a wide surgical approach, complete tumor removal with safe margins and satisfying cosmetic result. Lateral rhinotomy with medial maxillectomy is recommended for surgical resection of ethmoid sinus carcinoma. This surgical approach allows for a simultaneous neurosurgical subfrontal approach.
