It is an unusual type of cancer associated with poor prognosis. Currently the construction of a continent urinary diversion using the Mitrofanoff principle has many indications as our case. Laparoscopic radical cystectomy can be done by experienced groups without adding much more technical difficulties; there are no long-term oncological outcome data but we believe in some functional advantages.

The aim of this study was to evaluate bone mass changes after 1 year of four different types of pharmacological intervention. Ninety-seven prostate cancer patients treated with androgen deprivation therapy, and severe osteopenia or osteoporosis were retrospectively studied. Patients were divided in four groups. Group 1: 28 patients treated with denosumab, Group 2: 24 patients treated with alendronate, Group 3: 24 patients with no antiresorptive treatment and Group 4: 21 patients previously treated with alendronate and switched to denosumab. Dual X-ray absorptiometry was performed at baseline and after 1 year. Bone mass changes at the L2-L4 lumbar spine, femoral neck and total hip were evaluated. No differences were found at baseline. After 1 year, men receiving denosumab or alendronate (Group 1 and 2) showed a significant bone mass increase at the lumbar spine (+2.4 and +5.0 %, respectively), while no significant changes were observed in Group 3 and 4. At the femoral neck, Group 1 and 2 patients showed a significant bone mass increase (+3.7 and +3.6 %, respectively), while no significant changes were observed in Group 3 and 4. At the total hip, we observed a significant bone mass increase in Group 1 (+2.9 %) and a significant bone mass loss in Group 3 patients (-1.9 %). No significant changes were observed in Group 2 and 4. Denosumab increased significantly bone mass in all three dual X-ray absorptiometry standard sites, while alendronate did not at total hip. No benefit was observed in men previously treated with alendronate who switched to denosumab treatment.

RESUMENCARCINOMA LINFOEPITELIOMA-LIKE PURO PRIMARIO DE VEJIGA Objetivo: Presentar un nuevo caso de carcinoma linfoepitelioma-like vesical puro. Material y métodos: Se describe la clínica, diagnóstico, tratamiento y evolución de este tipo de tumor. Revisión de la literatura.Conclusiones: Se trata de un tumor vesical infrecuente que requiere de un análisis anatomopatológico cuidadoso y confirmación mediante técnicas de inmunohistoquímica. La forma focal se asocia a peor pronóstico. La cistectomía radical es el gold estándar. Este tipo de tumor presenta sensibilidad a radioterapia y quimioterapia, pudiéndose utilizar ambas como tratamiento adyuvante. Conclusions: It is an unusual type of bladder cancer that requires a carefully analyse from the pathologist and a confirmation by means of immunohistochemistry techniques. The focal form is associated with poor prognosis. Radical cystectomy is the gold standard. This kind of tumor has sensibility to chemo and radiotherapy, who can be used as adyuvant therapy.
