Foram revistos 50 pedidos de biópsia e analisadas as lâminas coradas pelos métodos H&E e Ziehl-Neelsen, utilizando os critérios de Ridley & Jopling. Resultados: As formas classificadas foram: 9 indeterminadas, 10 tuberculóides, 5 dimorfas tuberculóides, 5 dimorfas lepromatosas, 5 subpolares lepromatosas e 16 lepromatosas. Dos 50 pacientes, 30 eram do sexo masculino, e as formas multibacilares predominaram nesse sexo. Em 2 não se fez hipótese diagnóstica de Hanseníase, e em 30 foi especificada uma ou mais formas, com freqüente discordância entre o diagnóstico histopatológico e a hipótese clínica. Conclusões: A classificação da Hanseníase depende de atenção aos critérios histopatológicos e da correlação com os dados clínicos e imunológicos do paciente.
siendo la metástasis a linfáticos cervicales infrecuentes y poco reportados en la literatura. En el presente trabajo aportamos una particular observación de esta entidad. Presentando un caso clínico donde se evidencia masa latero cervical izquierda, dolor abdominal y diarrea. Al realizar la biopsia de adenopatía cervical y de la lesión anal que reportaron adenocarcinoma prostático poco diferenciado. Se realizó colonoscopia en vista de lesión anal al examen físico, con biopsia cuyos resultados fueron carcinoma poco diferenciado de próstata en foco necrótico infiltrante a recto. Los estudios complementarios demostraron adenopatías para aórticas abdominales bilaterales. Las adenopatías cervicales en cuello en hombres adultos debe contemplar dentro de sus diagnósticos diferenciales el carcinoma de próstata, debido a que el adecuando tratamiento puede prolongar la sobrevida en estos pacientes.

Within the diagnosis differential of the cervical adenopathys in neck in adult men it must consider the prostate carcinoma, because in an early diagnosis and adapting treatment it can prolong the survive.
