An anterolateral transfacial approach for tumors of the retromaxillary space, the nasopharynx, and the middle cranial fossa features a temporary removal of the malar complex and resection of the coronoid process and the pterygoid plates. Two cases demonstrate use of this approach. Results and complications are observed in six patients.

Objective To establish an automatic reduction method for unilateral zygomatic fractures based on Iterative Closes Point(ICP)algorithm. Material and Methods 60 patients with unilateral type B zygomatic fractures were included. After acquiring CT images, zygomatic fragments were segmented using self-developed software MICSys.

The state-of-the-art approach to open reduction and fixation (ORIF) of zygoma fracture fragments is based on manual skills. Achieving high accuracy can be challenging. Our feasibility study on deceased body donors with artificial zygomatic fractures investigated whether virtual repositioning of the fractures and the use of customised 3D-printed titanium osteosynthesis plates was similar in accuracy to the conventional manual procedure, and whether the method was applicable in a clinical setting.

Real-time surgical navigation systems (dynamic computer-aided surgery, d-CAIS) and static guided surgery (static computer-aided surgery, s-CAIS) have been shown to enhance the accuracy of zygomatic implant (ZI) placement. The objective of this systematic review was to evaluate and compare the accuracy and risk of complications associated with d-CAIS and s-CAIS in ZI placement. A systematic review of published studies involving more than 4 patients was conducted to assess and compare the accuracy of d-CAIS and s-CAIS in zygomatic implant placement.

Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on infrazygomatic miniscrew implants (IZC-MSI) as temporary anchorage devices in orthodontics, highlighting their importance in supporting maxillary tooth movement.
- The systematic review aimed to evaluate the success rate and stability factors of IZC-MSI through a comprehensive electronic search of multiple databases.
- Results from 14 studies indicated a 92% overall success rate for these implants, with variations based on sample size and significant heterogeneity in factors influencing their stability.
Our experience in petroclival lesions using a contralateral transmaxillary approach.
Neurocirugia (Astur : Engl Ed)
January 2025
Departamento de Radiología, Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain.
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.
