    The objective of this study was to determine the frequency of pulp pathologies in patients treated at the endodontics service of the PNP-Angamos Specialized Clinic, Lima, in 2016. This was a descriptive, cross-sectional, retrospective, observational study in which medical records registered in 2016 were reviewed. A total of 656 medical records were examined, meeting the inclusion criteria of individuals aged 19 to 51 and older. Descriptive and inferential statistics (alpha = 0.05) were performed using the SPSS statistical program. It was found that 90.9% of the patients had at least one tooth with pulp pathology, with a higher prevalence in the 51 years and older age group (34.6%). Of these, 53.8% were male, and 37% were female. The most frequently found pulp diagnosis was pulp necrosis (40.2%), followed by symptomatic irreversible pulpitis (27.6%).
