The number of illnesses and deaths from this disease has multiplied over the years, and this fact was caused by multiple causes. When the therapeutic processes do not present proper results in the face of the evolution of the disease, so the situation becomes irreversible, in this context, the multidisciplinary health team should provide PC. Objective: This research was a literary review that exposed competent palliative care to Occupational Therapy in approaching people in a terminal ontological state and its application in line with the spirituality of the individual.

Articles from the years 2016 to 2022 were used, in total 24 articles were used for the production of this study.

Despite prostatic carcinoma, despite being a common pathology, it corroborates a high rate of deaths, resulting from late diagnoses of the same due to reasons of preconception of men's ideologies.
