Abstract

A cutaneous draining sinus tract of dental origin is often a diagnostic challenge, because of its uncommon occurrence and absence of dental symptoms. Diagnosis of the cause may be challenging but is the key to successful therapy, otherwise, it can result in ineffective and inappropriate outcome of treatment. We present a rare case report of periapical granuloma with chronic muco-cutaneous sinus.
