RESUMO
We present the case of a patient of 50 years old who developed a tumoral formation at the level of the uterine cervix. The histopathologic examination beside the clinic examination constituted an important element in diagnosis elaboration. The histopathologic study performed on serial sections from the tumoral fragment of the cervix allowed establishment of the positive diagnosis through the exclusion of some lesions with microscopic relatively similar images but which have a complete different prognosis and therapy.

The case of a 67-year-old man is presented. He was admitted for the presence of a left parietal tumour with progressive growing, without any other objective or subjective symptomatology. CT-scan detects a left parietal osteolytic area. The histopathological aspect suggested an adenocarcinomatous metastasis with papillary pattern, moderately differentiated. With the purpose of diagnosing the original tumour, immunnohistochemical techniques were performed, which led to a diagnosis of a thyroidian carcinoma. At the histological examination of the surgical extirpated thyroid, it was proved to be a papillary carcinoma (Chan, 1990, Hay, 1990), the follicular pattern.
