Abstract
Anatomical and surgical details of the author's temporal approach to the temporomandibular joint (TMJ), the orbit, and the retromaxillary-infratemporal space are described using drawings and photographs taken during surgery. The approach is advocated because it gives any desirable access to the operating fields without leaving a visible scar in the face and because it preserves the condyle and, thereby, the integrity of the TMJ.Mesh:
