Infratemporal Fossa approach: the modified zygomatico-transmandibular approach
Maxillofacial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2019Co-Authors: Soung Min Kim, Sun Ha Paek, Jong Ho LeeAbstract:Background The Infratemporal Fossa (ITF) is an anatomical lateral skull base space composed by the zygoma, temporal, and the greater wing of the sphenoid bone. Due to its difficult approach, surgical intervention at the ITF has remained a heavy burden to surgeons. The aim of this article is to review basic skull base approaches and ITF structures and to avoid severe complications based on the accurate surgical knowledge. Methods A search of the recent literature using MEDLINE (PubMed), Embase, Cochrane Library, and other online tools was executed using the following keyword combinations: Infratemporal Fossa, subtemporal Fossa, transzygomatic approach, orbitozygomatic approach, transmaxillary approach, facial translocation approach, midface degloving, zygomatico-transmandibular approach, and lateral skull base. Aside from our Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) trial, there have been very few randomized controlled trials. The search data for this review are summarized based on the authors’ diverse clinical experiences. Results We divided our results based on representative skull base approaches and the anatomy of the ITF. Basic approaches to the ITF include endoscopic endonasal, transzygomatic, orbitozygomatic, zygomatico-transmandibular, transmaxillary, facial translocation, and the midfacial degloving approach. The borders and inner structures of the ITF (with basic lateral skull base dissection schemes) are summarized, and the modified zygomatico-transmandibular approach (ZTMA) is described in detail. Conclusions An anatomical basic knowledge would be required for the appropriate management of the ITF pathology for diverse specialized doctors, including maxillofacial, plastic, and vascular surgeons. The ITF approach, in conjunction with the application of microsurgical techniques and improved perioperative care, has permitted significant advances and successful curative outcomes for patients having malignancy in ITF.

temporal bone giant cell tumour report of a second primary giant cell tumour of the temporal bone and Infratemporal Fossa
B-ent, 2011Co-Authors: Daniel S Roberts, William C Faquin, Daniel G DeschlerAbstract:OBJECTIVE To report a second primary giant cell tumour (GCT) of the temporal bone and Infratemporal Fossa. METHODOLOGY Medical records were analyzed in the context of the available literature. RESULTS A 30 year-old male developed a temporal bone GCT with Infratemporal Fossa extension 12 years after undergoing successful surgical treatment of a GCT of the femur. These tumours were histologically distinct, suggesting the development of a second primary GCT rather than metastatic disease. This case differs from prior reported cases by surgical approach. Complete removal was achieved but required resection of the zygomatic arch and dissection of all upper facial nerve branches. The patient is disease free after 3 years with acceptable functional and cosmetic results. CONCLUSION Complete resection of GCTs of the temporal bone and Infratemporal Fossa is advocated. Surgical techniques that allow for visualization of the facial nerve and increase surgical access can enhance overall clinical success.

giant cell tumors of the temporal bone and Infratemporal Fossa a case report and review of the literature
Laryngoscope, 2010Co-Authors: Daniel S Roberts, William C Faquin, Daniel G DeschlerAbstract:Objectives To report a giant cell tumor (GCT) of temporal bone and Infratemporal Fossa and to review the literature pertinent to the care of such patients. Study design Case report and review of the literature. Methods A review of the literature was conducted using Pubmed and the key words temporal bone, GCT, Infratemporal Fossa, and recurrent GCT. Medical records from an index case were analyzed and presented in the context of the available literature. Results Six case reports over 23 years illustrate that these benign locally destructive lesions may originate in the temporal bone with extension into the Infratemporal Fossa. More commonly, GCTs involve the distal ends of long bones. We present a 30 year-old male who developed a temporal bone GCT with Infratemporal Fossa extension 12 years after undergoing successful surgical treatment of a GCT of the femur. Our index case differs from prior reported cases by surgical approach and by the occurrence of an Infratemporal Fossa GCT as well as a previous GCT at a separate anatomical location. Complete removal was achieved but required resection of the zygomatic arch and dissection of all upper facial nerve branches. This was tolerated well with acceptable functional and cosmetic results. The patient is disease free after 24 months without facial nerve deficits. Conclusion Due to the risk for recurrence, complete resection of GCTs of the temporal bone and Infratemporal Fossa is advocated. Surgical techniques that allow for visualization of the facial nerve and increase surgical access can enhance overall clinical success with limited post-operative morbidity.

giant cell tumour of temporal bone and Infratemporal Fossa a rare case
Head and Neck Pathology, 2020Co-Authors: Avani Jain, Ishwar Singh, Ravi Shankar, Deepti VarshneyAbstract:Giant cell tumours (GCT) of the bone are uncommon primary bone neoplasms that occur mainly in the epiphysis of long bones. GCT of the skull is rarely encountered, particularly of the temporal bone. We report a rare case of giant cell tumour of the squamous portion of the temporal bone extending to the Infratemporal Fossa in a 38-year old male. The patient presented with progressive trismus, and swelling and pain in the right temporal region. The patient underwent excision of the mass by maxillary swing approach. The treatment of choice for GCT is complete surgical excision. Based on the location and extent of the GCT in the Infratemporal Fossa, several surgical approaches have been tried for its excision.

Journal of Neurological Surgery Reports, 2015Co-Authors: Kentaro Watanabe, Carol A Filomena, Yoichi Nonaka, Masahide Matsuda, Ali R Zomorodi, Allan H Friedman, Takanori FukushimaAbstract:Dermoid cysts are rare in the skull base. There have been 10 reported cases of dermoid cysts in the cavernous sinus, two in the petrous apex, and one in the extradural Meckel cave. This is the first case report of a dermoid cyst in the anterior Infratemporal Fossa attached to the anterior dura of the foramen ovale. The clinical presentation, radiologic findings, histologic features, tumor origin, and operative technique are described along with a review of the literature.

Preauricular transzygomatic anterior Infratemporal Fossa approach for tumors in or around Infratemporal Fossa lesions
Neurosurgical Review, 2012Co-Authors: Shiro Ohue, Takanori Fukushima, Yoshiaki Kumon, Takanori Ohnishi, Allan H FriedmanAbstract:Various surgical approaches to the Infratemporal Fossa (ITF) have been reported. Among them, the preauricular transzygomatic anterior ITF approach (anterior ITF approach) has been used for exposure of the antero-superior part of the ITF. The purpose of this article is to show anatomical dissections using the anterior ITF approach and to evaluate our surgical experience using this approach. An anatomical study of the anterior ITF approach was performed using six sides of three cadaveric heads. Clinical course was retrospectively reviewed for 34 patients who underwent microsurgical resection of tumor in or around the ITF using this approach. Medical, surgical, and neuroimaging records of these patients were evaluated. The key point of this approach was mobilization of the second and third divisions of the trigeminal nerve after drilling of the lateral loop between the foramina rotundum and ovale. After mobilization of the trigeminal nerve, the auditory tube, tensor veli palatini muscle, and pharyngobasilar membrane could be seen. Removal of the pterygoid muscles and plates allowed surgical access to the ITF, orbit, maxillary sinus, pterygopalatine Fossa, and parapharyngeal space. We used this approach in 31 patients with skull base tumors between 1994 and 2007. Gross total removal was achieved in 27 of the 31 patients. No mortality or severe morbidity was encountered. Therefore, the anterior ITF approach provides easy access to the ITF and adjacent regions without destruction of important organs.
