Visualization of the left infraorbital nerve and the infraorbital foramen revealed multiple soft tissue adhesions from the anterior soft tissue causing nerve compression (Figure 1).
Following adhesiolysis and a circumferential osteotomy in a box-like fashion, the infraorbital nerve is successfully released from previous entrapment.

A 1-mm osteotome was then used to perform a circumferential osteotomy of the left infraorbital foramen in a box-like fashion (Figure 2).
