Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The study examines the impact of advanced platelet-rich fibrin (A-PRF) on bone regeneration in apical surgery compared to standard methods. It highlights the effectiveness of ultrasound as a diagnostic tool for assessing periapical lesions. Eligible participants were adults with specific periapical lesions following root canal treatment failures. Exclusions included patients outside specific criteria, like those with advanced periodontal disease or undergoing orthodontic treatment. Participants were randomized into two groups: one receiving A-PRF to enhance bone regeneration and a control group without it. Both groups underwent apical surgery under magnification, with different postoperative protocols. The study involved radiological and ultrasonographic evaluations of lesion size and bone healing at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months, alongside blood analyses for Vitamin D and cholesterol level to assess their potential impact on healing.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Control group (Without A-PRF)

During the surgery procedure A-PRF application is not intended.

Group Type OTHER

Apical surgery without using A-PRF

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Participants will undergo an apical surgery procedure without using A-PRF. Patients will undergo comprehensive evaluation before the surgery and at follow-ups using clinical, radiological, and ultrasonographic techniques.

Test group ( With A-PRF)

During the surgery procedure A-PRF application is intended.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Apical surgery procedure using A-PRF

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Participants will undergo an apical surgery procedure using A-PRF. Before the surgery and at follow-ups, patients will undergo comprehensive evaluation using clinical, radiological, and ultrasonographic techniques.
