Perigraft hygroma mimicking recurrent angiosarcoma of the right atrium.

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
Primary cardiac angiosarcoma is extremely rare, has a poor prognosis and has no specific clinical manifestation. A 31-year-old pregnant woman presented to the emergency department with signs of pericardial tamponade. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) showed a mass within her right atrium. Extensive surgical resection was performed with subsequent pericardial patch reconstruction of the right atrium. Histological examination showed the presence of an angiosarcoma. A reoperation was performed 18 months after the initial operation, because of concerns of radicality. Three years later she was re-admitted with a superior caval vein syndrome. A stent was placed to relieve symptoms. Because of the suspicion of a recurrent tumor, a second reoperation followed. During this operation, a perigraft hygroma was found pressing against the previously reconstructed superior caval vein. Histological examination after both reoperations showed no signs of a recurrent angiosarcoma. Until today, 8 years after her first surgery, the patient is still alive without any signs of recurrent tumor.
