The article present a survey of research involving geometry contents from the Historical-Cultural perspective, seeking to understand how they organize of geometric knowledge and to identify if they present a discussion about the logical-historical movement of the concept approached. When doing the readings we organized an investigation characterizing the researches regarding the focus of approach. We carried out a qualitative bibliographical survey that investigated 16 dissertations and 6 theses between the years of 2006 and 2017. We found that most approach geometric concepts with students of basic education, those involving document analysis and conceptual discussion present proposals for the teaching of geometry. Research on formation of teacher indicates that actions involving activity theory and the logical-historical movement of geometric concepts contribute to the appropriation of concepts and to teaching activities. We defend the need for other researches so that we can propose actions involving the teaching of geometry with an approach based on the Historical-Cultural perspective and the logical-historical movement.
