In this article, we present the case of a 43-year-old female with a tumor of the orbital base. Computed tomography revealed a well-defined contrast enhancing cavernous hemangioma behind the left bulbus oculi. The surgical resection was performed by transmaxillary approach to the orbit. No clinical complications were observed during three-month follow-up following surgery.

Our experience in petroclival lesions using a contralateral transmaxillary approach.

Petroclival lesions represent a surgical challenge during the endonasal endoscopic approach, as they may involve maneuvers with severe comorbidity. To avoid the morbidity caused by these maneuvers, a contralateral transmaxillary approach (CTA) has been proposed to complement the endoscopic endonasal approach. The aim of our study is to review the safety and efficacy of this approach.

This report presents a notable approach to treating a locally invasive maxillary ameloblastoma in a 46-year-old woman using an endoscopy-assisted total maxillectomy via a contralateral transmaxillary approach without a subciliary incision. Ameloblastomas, though benign, require radical surgical management due to their aggressive nature and high recurrence rates, especially in the maxilla. Traditional techniques often involve extensive facial incisions, leading to significant scarring and potential complications.

Surgical access to tumors involving the infratemporal fossa (ITF) and adjacent regions can be challenging, and there is a continued need for novel approaches to complex tumors in this region. In this manuscript, we present a unique anatomical approach that allows contiguous exposure of the ITF and buccal space with mobilization of the lateral maxillary buttress. Laryngoscope, 2024.

Article Synopsis
- Orbital Cavernous venous malformations (OCVMs) are benign, well-defined lesions that are commonly found in the orbital area, ranking third in prevalence among intraconal pathologies after lymphoid tumors and idiopathic inflammation.
- A middle-aged female patient experienced progressive eye protrusion without visual disturbances; imaging confirmed an intraconal lesion near the optic nerve.
- The lesion was successfully treated using an endoscopic endonasal transmaxillary approach, leading to complete resolution of symptoms and a positive recovery, with pathology confirming it as a cavernous hemangioma.
A recent algorithm for management of orbital floor fractures with the application of a novel minimally invasive endoscopic surgery.

Orbital floor (OF) fractures present a dilemma, with controversies surrounding surgical indication, approach, and ideal material for reconstruction. Our study was conducted on cases of (OF) fracture admitted to a tertiary referral centre. Cases of (OF) associated with zygomaticomaxillary complex (ZMC) fracture were managed as follows: those with ophthalmological problems were subjected to endoscopically assisted transorbital reconstruction of the floor; cases without ophthalmological problems were subjected to reduction and fixation of the ZMC fracture only.
