In oncological surgery of the pterygomaxillary fossa it is essential to achieve a wide access. For this purpose we have employed the old Jaeger''s incision extended posteriorly in association with access osteotomies (zygoma and coronoid). In our experience (9 cases) the jugal access has provided good results without noticeable cutaneous scars. The technique is described with the presentation of 2 cases.

Abstract

In oncological surgery of the pterygomaxillary fossa it is essential to achieve a wide access. For this purpose we have employed the old Jaeger''s incision extended posteriorly in association with access osteotomies (zygoma and coronoid). In our experience (9 cases) the jugal access has provided good results without noticeable cutaneous scars. The technique is described with the presentation of 2 cases.
