A good addition to my endodontic library., November 23, 2014
By Russell A. Paul

Complications in Endodontic Surgery (Tsesis) is a text that targets a specific problem area for endodontic surgery, that is the complications we may encounter relating to the surgical procedure, whether patient-related or operator-related. It is not a "how to" book regarding endodontic surgery. We have several good texts on the market already that meet those needs (Arens and Torabinejad; Kim and Rubinstein; Moreno). This book deals with problems that arise that perhaps we could have anticipated or avoided, either in our original treatment plan decision-making or during the procedure itself.

Some chapters are very specific in identifying issues and making recommendations, and these are the chapters that are treatment and technique oriented. A few of the earlier chapters are more general in nature in that they describe diagnostic and treatment planning decision-making. In these chapters the emphasis is error avoidance in the initial patient evaluation and diagnosis.

I do enough surgery in my endodontic practice that this book fills a valuable niche. I think it is a good addition for any endodontist performing surgery that already has a a "how to" book, but is interested in a text that is perhaps the "next step" after that. It is a text that accompanies, but does not replace, the procedural texts. It is also not so overwhelming in size that it would only be used as a reference text. You can actually sit down and read the text cover to cover is a reasonable time framework.

Very disappointing book! Never addresses the stated objectives. ..., August 19, 2014
By Ron Ganik DDS

Very disappointing book ! Never addresses the stated objectives. This book is just a rehash of dated literature and offers no clinical solutions to the challenges of apical surgery. It does not present any particularly challenging cases.
Don't buy this book !
