statement of problem: the goal of a successful endodontic surgery is to establish an adequate seal in apical region. therefore during surgery, root-end resection is essential for an appropriate situation and proper access.purpose: the aim of this study was to determine the most appropriate root-end resection angle to establish adequate apical seal in periapical surgerymaterials and methods: for...

introduction: in cases of limited access to the surgical site, an alternative approach is to obturate the canal prior to surgery. endodontic surgery is subsequently performed by root-end resection without retro-cavity preparation. this in vitro study was designed to compare the sealing ability of resected roots filled with either mineral trioxide aggregate (mta) or calcium enriched mixture (cem...

  Abstract   Background: Iatrogenic airway injury after endotracheal intubation and tracheotomy   remains a serious clinical problem. In this study we reviewed post-intubation and traumatic tracheal stenosis in 47 patients with a special attention to the cause, hense surgical treatment of the stenosis was performed and the results compared with the literatures.   Methods: Since February 1995 th...
