The bony window was repositioned to the original site and the soft tissue sutured. The cases were re-evaluated clinically and radiographically after a period of 12 - 24 months. At follow-up, radiographic healing was observed. No additional grafting material was needed despite the extent of the lesions. The indication for this procedure is when teeth present with an intact or near-intact buccal cortical plate and a large apical lesion to preserve the bone and use it as an autologous graft.

Apicoectomy involves surgical management of a tooth with a periapical lesion which cannot be resolved by routine endodontic treatment. Because the term “apicoectomy” consists of only one aspect of a multifaceted series of surgical procedures, i.e removal of root apex, the terms “periapical surgery” or “periradicular surgery” are more apposite. It must only be applied in specific situations. Endodontic treatment failures can be related to: extra-radicular infections such as periapical actinomycosis; to foreign body reactions that can be caused by endodontic material extrusion; to endogenous cholesterol crystal accumulation in apical tissues and unresolved cystic lesion.

Introduction alveolaris” complicated by a dental abscess in the late years Apical surgery is the standard endodontic surgical procedure of the 19th century as a valid alternative to a dental to maintain a tooth with significant periapical lesion that extraction.
