Medical: Dentistry
The following is from a report of clinical case studies where 3D imaging is recommended. I am not sure whether most of the mesial wall or of the distal root is meant. Any help appreciated.
"La racine distale est en contact étroit avec la paroi mésiale du canal qu’elle longe en grande partie."
"La racine distale est en contact étroit avec la paroi mésiale du canal qu’elle longe en grande partie."

for most of its length
The distal root lies in close proximity to the mesial canal wall for most of its length.
or "for a good part of its length" - the length of the distal root

In any case, this solution is just as ambiguous as the source text :-)
