Abstract

Cervical lymphadepathy is very common in many benign and malignant conditions. It is not only the easiest accessible tissues for making the correct diagnosis by histopathologic examination (HPE) but also may be the only presenting feature of the disease. We herein present a case of prostate cancer that was diagnosed only by the HPE and Immunohistochemistry (IHC) of the excised cervical lymph nodes. The importance of cervical lymph node biopsy has also been discussed.
