Abstract
DE JESUS OROZCO ARIZA, José; DEL RIO ROCHA, Daniel Gustavo and DIAZ CABALLERO, Antonio José. Residual cyst with semisolid content, a clinical case. Salud, Barranquilla [online]. 2018, vol.34, n.3, pp.824-829. ISSN 0120-5552.

61-year-old patient who comes to consultation for the realization of upper jaw dentures, during the clinical examination a slight facial asymmetry of the right side is observed; radiographic and tomographic examination revealed a radiolucent lesion in the right premolar region. It is diagnosed as a residual cyst and an enucleation is decided; during the surgical procedure a viscous content of yellowish coloration and semi-solid content is observed.
Main comments:
It is very rare to find residual cysts with semi-solid content, since they generally have purulent or serosanguinous contents.
