Healing of Extensive Through-and-Through Periradicular Lesion Using Apicoectomy Without Bone Grafting: A Case Report With 3-Year Recall.
Article in Case reports in dentistry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The pathogenic process of through-and-through lesions leads to erosion and loss of both cortical plates. Endodontic microsurgery (MS)with bone graft and membrane placement (guided tissue regeneration (GTR)) is the proposed treatment for such cases. This article is aimed at discussing an unusual treatment protocol for a large through-and-through lesion without the use of bone grafting or membrane. A 26-year-old Air Force pilot traveling at high altitudes presented to the Endodontic division for management of pain and swelling related to the upper left anterior lesion concerning Teeth #21, #22, and #23. Following a thorough clinical examination, medical history, and clinical and radiographic examination, the diagnosis of the presence of a through-and-through lesion related to previously treated teeth. The treatment plan included endodontic MS without the use of GTR due to his work nature. Over 3 years, routine follow-ups were essential for tracking the damaged area's healing process, which ultimately resulted in full recovery. This case emphasizes how crucial it is to obtain a thorough history and use a multidisciplinary approach to diagnose and manage through-and-through lesions, achieving positive outcomes.
