The term of apicectomy has been well-known for more than 200 years, nevertheless it is not performed frequently on molars. As a result of this a lot of molars became extracted. The aim of the authors was to present the new surgical technique which is described in detail. The radicular cyst localised on the palatal root of the first maxillary molar was operated on. Uneventful healing was obtained. This surgical technique is recommended in some special cases.
