Resumen


Resumen

Introducción: los carcinomas de vejiga de células gigantes parecidas a osteoclasto son un subtipo histológico extremadamente inusual y agresivo de los carcinomas uroteliales. Solamente se encuentran reportados 30 casos en la literatura internacional.

Caso clínico: un paciente masculino de 79 años acudió a valoración a nuestro departamento de Urología por un cuadro de hematuria macroscópica de seis meses de evolución. Como parte de su protocolo diagnóstico se realizó una TC de abdomen y pelvis con fase de eliminación, encontrando un defecto de llenado de 12 mm a nivel de la pared posterior de la vejiga; posteriormente se realizó una cistoscopia confirmando la presencia de un tumor vesical de 1.5 cm, el cuál fue resecado en su totalidad. El análisis por Patología con tinción de hematoxilina y eosina reveló una composición por células mononucleares y células gigantes parecidas a osteoclasto; la inmunohistoquímica fue positiva para marcadores epiteliales CK AE-1/AE-3, EMA, P53 y CD68.

Conclusiones: estos tumores son extremadamente inusuales y agresivos. El único método diagnóstico es a través de inmunohistoquímica en donde se confirme la presencia de marcadores epiteliales para urotelio en las células neoplásicas. Se recomienda un tratamiento quirúrgico radical y a la fecha no existe un tratamiento adyuvante efectivo demostrado. Su supervivencia media global es de 15 meses.

 

Abstract

Background: Osteoclast-like giant cell bladder carcinomas are an extremely unusual and aggressive histological subtype of urothelial carcinomas. Only 30 cases are reported in the international literature.

Clinical case: A 79-year-old male patient attended our Urology department for a six-month history of macroscopic hematuria. As part of its diagnostic protocol, a CT scan of the abdomen and pelvis with elimination phase was performed, finding a 12-mm filling defect at the level of the posterior wall of the bladder; subsequently, a cystoscopy was performed confirming the presence of a 1.5 cm bladder tumor, which was completely resected. Pathology analysis with hematoxylin and eosin staining revealed a composition of mononuclear cells and osteoclast-like giant cells; Immunohistochemistry was positive for epithelial markers CK AE-1 / AE-3, EMA, P53 and CD68.

Conclusions: These tumors are extremely unusual and aggressive. The only diagnostic method is through immunohistochemistry where the presence of epithelial markers for urothelium in neoplastic cells is confirmed. Radical surgical treatment is recommended and to date there is no proven effective adjuvant treatment. Its median overall survival is 15 months.
