Resection of liposarcoma of the greater omentum: A case report and literature review.
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionLiposarcoma usually occurs in the retroperitoneum and limbs. Liposarcoma of the greater omentum is rare, and most information of such liposarcomas has come from case reports. PRESENTATION OF CASE: A 60-year-old woman was found to have an 8-cm intra-abdominal mass (suspected lipoma) by computed tomography. At the age of 63 years, she underwent a medical examination and a mass was palpated in the abdomen. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging confirmed the presence of a huge intra-abdominal tumor with the omental artery passing through the mass. The tumor was simply resected. Histopathologically, the tumor was diagnosed as a well-differentiated liposarcoma, and the resection margin was microscopically negative. The patient had developed no recurrence or complications 9 months postoperatively. DISCUSSION: Liposarcoma of the greater omentum is rare, and differentiation of liposarcoma from other tumors is challenging. Adjuvant therapy has not been established as an effective treatment, and radical (R0) resection of the tumor is recommended. Our case of liposarcoma of the greater omentum was surgically managed with good outcomes.
conclusionThe diagnosis of liposarcoma with a lipomatous tumor is challenging, and resection should be considered for huge intra-abdominal lipomatous tumors.
