In this paper we perform a fine blow up analysis for a fourth order elliptic equation involving critical Sobolev exponent, related to the prescription of some conformal invariant on the standard sphere ( S n , h ). We derive from this analysis some a priori estimates in dimension 5 and 6. On S 5 these a priori estimates, combined with the perturbation result in the first part of the present work, allow us to obtain some existence result using a continuity method. On S 6 we prove the existence of at least one solution when an index formula associated to this conformal invariant is different from zero.
