Prostate cancer is the leading urological cancer in men in Congo. Metastases of the ENT and cervicofacial regions in prostate cancer are rare. The objective of this study was to report the clinical, paraclinical and evolutionary aspects of cervical and maxillofacial metastases of two cases of prostate cancer followed at the University Hospital of Brazzaville. These were patients aged 64 and 71 years, respectively, in the advanced stages of the disease. As the patients were no longer operable, systemic treatment was the essential therapeutic modality that improved the quality of life of both patients.

Keywords: Advanced Prostate Cancer; Metastasis; Cervicofacial; ENT
