Piezoelectric Condylectomy Through Transoral Endoscopic Approach: A Cadaveric Study

Abstract

AbstractSurgical approaches in the treatment of TMJ pathologies are a much-debated topic in literature. We propose a new surgical approach performed by intraoral access and completed by endoscopic magnification and long-tip piezosurgery assistance. A piezosurgery (Piezosurgery Plus, Mectron s.p.a. 2014) with a long angled tip (MT5-10 L) was used to perform an endoscopically assisted condylectomy.
