ABSTRACT
Introduction: periapical cysts are the most common odontogenic cysts. Their
origin is related to pulp necrosis and the consequent stimulation of epithelial rests
of the periodontal ligament (Malassez).
Objective: describe a clinical case of periapical cyst enucleation and simultaneous
sealing of the root canal system.
Case report: a female 67-year-old patient without any systemic alteration sought
care for dental pain and accumulation of food in the area of the lower left molars.
Clinical examination revealed extensive decay in the lower left second molar with
furcation involvement and absence of vestibular volume increase without a fistula.
Periapical radiography showed an extensive recurrent carious lesion in the lower left
second molar and lower left first molar with endodontic treatment and presence of
a radiolucent area of a sharp outline in the periapical region compatible with
periapical cyst. Treatment was conducted by a multidisciplinary team, who decided
to perform extraction of the lower left second molar and paraendodontic surgery
with surgical enucleation and simultaneous sealing of the root canal system in the
lower left first molar. Histopathological examination of the specimen removed
revealed it was a periapical cyst. Radiographic follow-up conducted two years later
showed complete bone repair in the affected area.
Conclusions: it is concluded that the treatment described is a valid alternative for
the resolution of cases in which conventional endodontics is insufficient to preserve the function and aesthetic appearance of a tooth.
