Description

<p>The high perimandibular approach was developed for condyle fracture surgery. It has the advantages of easy access to the surgical field, low risk of facial nerve injury and non-visible surgical scars, making it superior when compared to other approaches (also used for intramasseter tumor removal). We recently performed the surgical removal of intramasseter hemangiomas in two patients using the high perimandibular approach. Both hemangiomas were located in the center of masseter muscle, and their diameters were approximately 1cm. The surgeries progressed smoothly, since we could secure a sufficient surgical field. The patients’ postoperative courses were uneventful, without complications such as facial nerve dysfunction and bad surgical scars. In conclusion, it was suggested that the high perimandibular approach is useful for the surgical removal of intramasseter tumors.</p>
