Endodotically declared poor prognosis tooth saved by surgical intervention: a case report

چکیده
Odontogenic cutaneous sinus tract is a rare but well-documented condition. It is usually misdiagnosed as a local skin lesion and maltreated by systemic antibiotics and/or endodontic intervention. This is because the primary etiology is incorrectly determined. We came across a 40year-old patient who presented with a cutaneous lesion of dental etiology in the submandibular region with frequent purulent discharge which was not responding to systemic antibiotics and endodontic treatment. The case history, diagnosis and management of this condition using surgical intervention is presented here.
