The authors review their surgical technique for and experience with tumors involving the cranial base in children to maximize exposure, to minimize the effect on facial and skull growth, and to preserve the motor and sensory functions of the mandible and masseter muscles. The authors operated on three children via a modified lateral transmandibular approach. Although this technique is not completely novel, its use in such cases is particularly appropriate.
