Request on result of a request in MySQL?

Question

The title says all, I have a request like "Select [...]" and I want to do another request on the result of the first one. I didn't find anything relevant about that anywhere, and I found a solution where I create a temporary table where I put the result of my first request, then I request this table to get my final result, and I drop the table, but I absolutely want to avoid this super-heavy way. Any idea ?
