Abstract

Here we present the case of a 40 year old man with a left mandible osteosarcoma, initially treated with chemotherapy and radiation, with subsequent progression for which he required salvage resection and reconstruction. This video demonstrates a lateral temporal bone resection performed as part of a combined approach with head and neck surgery. The combined approach provided access to the infratemporal fossa for management of the osteosarcoma. Publication History Article published online: 27 February 2026 © 2026. Thieme.
