Their possible etiology is evaluated, the clinical course is described and present possibilities of treatment are discussed in particular.
In suitable cases the authors employ repeated filling of the root canal with pure preparations of calcium hydroxide, consider suitable techniques for filling the root canal and draw attention to suitable materials for reconstruction of damaged root.
