Abstract:
The authors studied the immunological answer of periapex to look for causes of osteolysis. They did six apicoectomies in teeth with periapical lesions containing extruded material, and found an inflammatory infiltrate of T lymphocytes and macrophages with birifrangent bodies. They suppose that this immunitary answer to extruded material, prevents the periapex cure.
