Delayed Repair of Large Iatrogenic Furcation Perforation using MTA

ProRoot MTA, MTA-Angelus and IRM used to repair large furcation perforations: sealability study.

The ability of two mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) compounds and Intermediate Restorative Material (IRM) to seal large furcation perforations were evaluated using a dye-extraction leakage method. The furcation perforations were repaired with and without the use of internal matrix before placement of repair material. Eighty extracted human mandibular first molars were divided into positive (n =...

repair of iatrogenic large colon perforation using laparoscopic methods. case report and review of the literature

iatrogenic perforation of the colon during elective colonoscopy is a serious complication. surgical treatment remains the standard of care. we report a patient with a large colonic perforation that occurred during a screening colonoscopy, successfully repaired with laparoscopic methods. although the safety and efficacy of this approach is not entirely established, laparoscopy can be used to tre...

Furcation perforation repair comparing gray and white MTA: a dye extraction study.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the ability of gray and white ProRoot MTA to seal furcation perforations in mandibular molars using a dye extraction leakage model. Sixty-four mandibular molars were randomly divided into four experimental groups. Six teeth with perforations were used as positive controls and six teeth without perforations were used as negative controls. Perforations in...

Iatrogenic colonic perforation: repair using laparoscopic technique.

BACKGROUND Iatrogenic colonic perforation is a rare complication of colonoscopies. Nowadays, there are still no specific guidelines for the optimal management of these complications (open surgery with colonic resection and anastomosis or colonic diversion, primary repair, endoscopic clips, nonoperative management, and laparoscopic approach). METHODS A retrospective analysis of 9 patients oper...
