AIM: Removal of impacted third maxillary molar is frequently carried out without difficulties and low rate of intraoperative complications. The rare and particularly challenger to manage it is the third molar dislocation into the infratemporal fossa (IF). In this clinical report, the authors present their solution to manage and resolve this particular complication.
METHODS: A 28-year-old woman was referred to the emergency rescue unit of the authors' hospital by her dentistry, after the attempt to extract the left impacted maxillary third molar. During the procedure the tooth accidentally dislodged and was lost sight of it. The patient had significant mouth-opening limitation, omolateral mid face swelling and pain. Computer tomography was immediately performed to determine the exact position of the tooth, showing the dental element dislocated into the IF.
RESULTS: Considering all of possible complications the best surgical option must guarantee a direct approach and a constant eye contact of the tooth, even in case of further displacement during the procedure, and allow early surgery. The authors used an endoscopic transoral approach through the preexisted access and solved all the issues reducing morbidity.
CONCLUSION: Removing tooth from the IF could be burdened by serious risk of bleeding and/or nerve injury. The endoscopic approach provides direct view of the IF reducing morbidity.
