Abstract
Interdisciplinarity in the diagnosis and treatment of large periapical lesions in the jaws is essential for a favorable prognosis and preservation of dental organs. This case presents apical granulomas as a consequence of chronic endo-periodontal diseases and inadequate and untimely diagnoses. This is how tools such as cone-Bean tomography, histopathology and immunohistochemistry were also applied, playing a fundamental role in their intervention for an accurate diagnosis. The objective of this case was to describe an interdisciplinary approach to a confluent periapical lesion involving the maxillary sinus, which evolved satisfactorily.References
