title: [Stereotactic localization and removal of foreign bodies situated deep to the facial tissues].
abstract: This stereotactic method permits the localization of any radiographically visible foreign body in the maxillofacial hard and soft tissues. Stereotactic needles can be inserted either via an intraoral or an extraoral approach. Use of these needles as guides during tissue preparation allows simple exposure and subsequent removal of foreign bodies. A close cooperation between neurosurgeons and maxillofacial surgeons during this procedure is recommended. The technique is explained with the aid of 2 case reports.
