J Islamic Int Med Coll Jan ;15(1):63-5.

A successful endodontic treatment of a tooth can be compromised by several causes, one such cause is a separation of an instrument within the canal. In order to increase the survival rate and prognosis of a tooth this mishap needs to be rectified. There are many nonsurgical and surgical ways available to deal with such a scenario. This case report presents a least invasive way of tackling this iatrogenic error that involves removal of the fractured instrument via braiding technique and also by passing of a ledge resulting in a successful outcome.
