[Prostate carcinosarcoma.] / Carcinosarcoma de próstata.

OBJECTIVE: To report a new case of prostatic carcinosarcoma, an uncommon and locally and distance aggressive tumor. METHOD: We analyzed one case diagnosed in our Center, from clinical and pathological diagnosis to death, describing the treatments received. RESULT: Patient presented a huge pelvic mass and a pulmonary metastasis that was treated with cystoprostatectomy and bilateral cutaneous ureterostomy with the diagnosis of carcinosarcoma of the prostate. He received 8 cycles of Docetaxel with bone progression and then 3 cycles of doxorubicin, suspending treatment due to progression. The survival was 18 months. CONCLUSIONS: Prostate carcinosarcoma is a very aggressive neoplasia that does not respond to the usual treatments of prostate cancer.

OBJETIVO: Reportar un nuevo caso de carcinosarcoma prostático, un tumor infrecuente y agresivo localmente y a distancia. MÉTODO: Se ha analizado un único caso diagnosticado en nuestro Centro, desde el diagnóstico clínico y anatomopatológico hasta el éxitus, describiéndose los tratamientos recibidos por el mismo. RESULTADO: Paciente que presenta gran masa pélvica y una metástasis pulmonar que es sometido a cistoprostatectomia y ureterostomía cutánea bilateral con el diagnóstico de carcinosarcoma de próstata. Recibió 8 ciclos de Docetaxel objetivándose progresión ósea y posteriormente 3 ciclos de Doxorrubicina suspendiéndose por progresión. La supervivencia fue de 18 meses. CONCLUSIONES: El carcinosarcoma prostático es una neoplasia muy agresiva que no responde a los tratamientos habituales del cáncer de próstata

Bilateral obstructive uropathy secondary to giant periureteral diverticulum.

Bladder diverticula are herniations of the mucosa through the fibers of the bladder muscle connected by necks of variable amplitude. They are often asymptomatic, although they may lead to complications that require a surgical therapeutic approach. We report the case of a patient with bilateral obstructive uropathy secondary to a giant periureteral diverticulum that was treated by diverticulectomy and reimplantation of the left ureter in the bladder.
