“…Anterior transmaxillary approaches using the Caldwell–Luc procedure with removal of the maxillary sinus posterior wall provides limited exposure to the region, and cannot be used to treat tumours with extension to the orbit or the middle cranial fossa 12 . Use of a transoral approach via the superior gingivolabial sulcus has been reported previously 13 . This approach did not give adequate exposure of the surgical field and was almost abandoned.…”

These two approaches allow non-invasive and wide exposure of the infratemporal fossa as compared to classical approaches. Surgical approach should be selected according to the tumour's anatomical location with respect to the maxillary sinus posterior wall. The preauricular subtemporal approach is recommended for tumours localised posterolaterally with respect to the maxillary sinus posterior wall. Medial and anterior tumours near the maxillary sinus posterior wall can be best removed using a transnasal endoscopic approach.
