[Surgical treatment of fronto-maxillary tumors].
Surgical treatment of fronto-maxillary tumors requires interdisciplinary cooperation of maxillofacial surgeons and neurosurgeons. Depending on the site and extension of the tumor, it may be necessary to resort to generous excision of the frontal, temporal, sphenoid, zygomatic bones, orbita and nasal bone, including their soft-tissue covers; possibly even exenteration of the orbita and excision of dura are required. Closure of open subarachnoid space is mandatory. Dural defects are supplied with periosteum or free fascial grafts. Calvarial defect are usually repaired with large rotation flaps of the scalp. In exceptional cases pedicled flaps from more remote areas or microsurgically vascularized grafts are used. The facial area is supplied either with flaps or split skin grafts, depending on the situation. Open paranasal sinuses must be drained via the nasal sinus. Remaining facial defects are treated prosthetically.
