Endoscopic-assisted surgery allows remote incision placement and provi
des an illuminated, magnified operative field. We have applied these p
rinciples to perform neurolysis of the zygomaticotemporal nerve and re
moval of a fixation wire under endoscopic control in a patient with pa
in and tenderness at the site of a previous zygomatic arch fracture. E
ndoscopic assistance aided dissection by placing the incision in a hid
den, unscarred area.
