This article, based on a reflection about the approach and singularities existing in the conduction of psychoanalytic management associated with obsessive neurosis, scrutinizes the deadlocks related to the properly nosographic issue that remains a problematic element throughout psychoanalytic clinic. Starting from a critical reappraisal of neurosis categorizations formulated by Sigmund Freud, which were reworked and expanded by Jacques Lacan, we propose an approach that brings tension to any nosographic attempt within the transference practice. As a matter of fact, the focus on pre-established categories set before the encounter with the patient appears increasingly common along the spectrum of approaches in the field of Psychology, which often puts itself ahead of the subject’s uniqueness. Thus, at the intersection between practice and theory, we intend to develop the idea of ​​how a structural diagnosis is capable to reintegrate the idea of ​​an obsessional neurosis that does not present itself as a rigid category, but one that is complex within the horizon of the transference in clinical practice.
