“…An early meta-analysis reported that these microsurgeries are 1.58 times more successful than traditional surgeries with cumulative success rates of 93.52% after 6 month follow-up [ 4 ]. Their long-term success (>4 years, 82.5%) [ 5 ] and survival (8.7 years, 74%) [ 6 ] are comparable to nonsurgical retreatment. However, long-term cumulative success rates for microsurgeries in cohorts have not been reported.…”

“…It is the recommended therapy for endodontically treated teeth with unresolved periapical lesions when the prognosis of secondary non-surgical root canal treatment is questionable 45. In comparison to the traditional apical surgical technique wherein the osteotomy is inherently large, modern surgical technique advocates a smaller access through the cortical bone in order to visualize, enucleate, and manage the resected root end.…”

“…In a long-term perspective the orthograde retreatment of the root filling offers a more favorable outcome, 83% versus 72% for periapical surgery after 4-6 years [9]. In contrast to that a meta-analysis from Kang et al revealed a significantly higher success rate for periapical surgery in a short term perspective (less than 4 years) compared to orthograde retreatment, whereas no significant difference could be detected after more than 4 years [10]. Another study has reported a success rate of 62% when performing a revision procedure [11].…”
