[Left supraclavicular adenopathy. Metastasis of carcinoma of the prostate].
Herein we describe two cases of prostatic carcinoma whose presenting feature was a left supraclavicular lymphadenopathy. The patients had presented no urinary symptomatology and the rectal examination of the prostate had disclosed minimal changes. A review of the literature has shown that the survival and treatment should be approached with the same protocols used in patient that initially present with bony or visceral metastasis. The finding of a supraclavicular lymphadenopathy should always prompt us to suspect the possibility of prostatic cancer.
