A brief history of the development of the technique is given. The results of nine cases are presented. These cases have had good tumour clearance, excellent cosmetic results and the minimum of complications. The sublabial approach is most useful in children and women, particularly those with intermediate grade tumours. The advantages of the approach compared to the lateral rhinotomy incision include: superior access to the floor of the nose, inferior turbinate and anterior nasal septum; access to both sides of the nasal septum and the absence of a facial scar. The limitations of the sublabial technique are the poor access to frontal sinus and the cribriform plate. Copyright © JLO (1984) Limited 1989 Bingham B. J. G.
