Excerpt

A perforation consists of a communication between the periodontium and the root canal space. This may result from caries or resorptive defects but most commonly occur iatrogenically. Fuss et al. reported that 10% of failed endodontic cases are due to perforations occurring during root canal therapy [1]. …
