Abstract

A case report has been presented documenting an infected idiopathic bone cavity associated with a necrotic pulp and an acute odontogenic facial cellulitis. The diagnostic dilemma which can occur when several pathological entities present in the same anatomical area and interact with one another was discussed. Dentists must be cautious in assuming a causative relationship between necrotic pulp tissue and all associated periapical radiolucencies.
