Resumo: Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is one of the most prevalent mental disorders. In spite of this, the lack of recognition of its characteristic symptoms can lead to delay in the diagnosis and treatment. Moreover, the variability of clinical manifestations and the diversity of symptoms are confusing factors by the time of diagnosis. Currently, it is made based on the manuals of diagnostic classification DSM-IV and CID-10 that describes the disorder as one single entity. However, OCD is underdiagnosed due to its heterogeneity from a clinical viewpoint and considering etiological factors and response to treatment. Comorbidities also make the diagnosis even more complex. Therefore, the accurate differential diagnosis is extremely important. This paper intends to review the available scientific literature regarding the diversity of clinical expression, the comorbidities that complicate the diagnosis, and the uncommon symptoms of OCD. Key words: obsessive-compulsive disorder, psychopathology, diagnosis.

No entanto, há ainda a falta de reconhecimento dos sintomas característicos, e isso pode levar ao atraso no diagnóstico e no tratamento. Não obstante, a variabilidade na expressão clínica e a diversidade dos sintomas são fatores complicadores no momento do diagnóstico. Atualmente, este é feito com base nos manuais de classificação diagnóstica DSM-IV e CID-10 que descrevem o transtorno como uma entidade única. Contudo, o TOC é muitas vezes subdiagnosticado por ser um transtorno heterogêneo do ponto de vista clínico e pelos fatores etiológicos e de resposta ao tratamento. As comorbidades tornam o diagnóstico ainda mais complexo. Assim, o diagnóstico diferencial acurado é de suma importância. Desse modo, este artigo revisa a literatura científica sobre as diversas manifestações clínicas do transtorno, as comorbidades que dificultam o diagnóstico e os sintomas incomuns do TOC.
