Imaging of Parapharyngeal Space and Infratemporal Fossa
Cross-sectional imaging is an indispensable tool in the investigation of parapharyngeal space and infratemporal fossa pathologies. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging exquisitely display the complex anatomy of this region and provides accurate spatial localization of pathology, differential diagnosis and vital information for treatment planning.
متن کاملInfratemporal Fossa, Masticator Space and Parapharyngeal Space: Can the Radiologist and Surgeon speak the Same Language?
Imaging is an integral part of head and neck cancer staging and assessing resectability. Accurate perception of imaging information by the clinician is possible only by effective communication between radiologist and surgeon. Traditionally, the radiologist studies the head neck region with two dimensional cross-sectional imaging. The surgeon perceives the head and neck region by real-time exper...
متن کاملSurgical Outcome of Mandibular Swing Approach for Infratemporal Fossa Tumors
Infratemporal fossa masses are rare. The largest series is probably of Fisch describing his approaches in 51 patients.1 There are numerous approaches for these masses with their own pros and cons. For instance, Fisch type C2 approach provides good exposure but is associated with permanent hearing loss. Preauricular transzygomatic, maxillary swing,3 and transantral4 approaches provide good expos...

متن کاملOutcome of resection of infratemporal fossa tumors.
BACKGROUND A variety of tumors arise in or extend to the infratemporal fossa. We investigated the outcome of surgical management of these tumors. METHODS We conducted a retrospective review of a craniofacial approach to resection of infratemporal fossa tumors from 1992 to 2008 in a cancer center. RESULTS Forty-three patients underwent resection of a infratemporal fossa tumors (68% men). Med...
