Methodology: A bibliographic search was carried out in the main databases: PUBMED, ScIELO, Google Scholar, VHL and LILACS, which collected works that were published from 2002 to 2017. We collected 33 articles, which were extracted from the databases as previously reported; It was included laboratory studies, case reports and systematic reviews as well as literature that were developed in the human species. Results: Based on the review, all studies showed that the cyst is a pathology with well defined characteristics, where it presents a pathological cavity coated by an epithelium containing in its interior a liquid or semisolid, even gaseous material. Conclusion: The root cyst can reach large proportions when not treated or discovered late, mainly because it is a pathology that does not present painful symptomatology in initial conditions unless it is infected
