    Author: Ebihara A, Yoshioka T, Suda H.
    Journal: Int Endod J; 2005 Apr; 38(4):255-61. PubMed ID: 15810976.
    Abstract:
    AIM: To report the healing of Garrè's osteomyelitis involving a mandibular second molar following root canal treatment. SUMMARY: To describe the endodontic management of Garrè's osteomyelitis involving a mandibular second molar. In this case, computed tomography (CT) was used to evaluate the status of the periapical lesion. Five years after root canal treatment, the tooth and supporting tissues appeared healthy both clinically and radiographically and were functioning well. KEY LEARNING POINTS: Garrè's osteomyelitis of an adult can be managed by root canal treatment. Computed tomography could be used for diagnosis and treatment planning in endodontics.
