title: [Practical problems of ethmoidectomy by a mixed approach].
abstract: A mixed ENT and neurosurgical approach is employed widely at present for exeresis of malignant ethmoidal tumors. The stability of the reconstruction of the anterior stage by bone graft is satisfactory in the long term even after radiotherapy. The transfacial approach, with or without conservation of the maxillonasal bone flap, procures a remarkable opening allowing in most cases a monobloc excision.
