Pleomorphic rhabdomyosarcoma on the chest wall which infiltrated intercostal muscles: A case report.

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
introductionRhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is the malignant tumor of skeletal muscles that origin from rhabdomyoblast. RMS is the most common soft tissue tumor in children, but this is a sporadic condition in adults and only 1% of any solid malignancies of an adult. The most prevalent subtype of RMS in an adult is a pleomorphic type. PRESENTATION OF CASE: We reported a case of a 57 years old woman with swelling on the left chest with pain for three years. Physical examination revealed swelling on the left chest with solid consistency and immobile. The thorax CT-scan with IV contrast suspicious soft tissue tumor on the anteromedial of the left chest wall that stuck to the left lung. DISCUSSION: Histopathological examination confirmed the pleomorphic subtype of rhabdomyosarcoma. The interdisciplinary idea was reported to be superior to a single therapeutic modality. The patient underwent an incisional biopsy.
conclusionThis is a case of pleomorphic rhabdomyosarcoma diagnosed base on histopathology from an incisional biopsy, and IHC performed wide excision gave satisfactory results.
