[Report on experiences with Eskici's vertical incision for apicoectomies]

The vertical incision described by Eskici for apicectomy had been used in 100 patients and verified for appropriateness. It was found that this technique has a more limited range of indication compared to the angular incision (prefered by the authors) since it creates a smaller field of operation. Its advantages consist in the absolute sparing of the marginal periodontium and in certain peculiar features of wound healing.
