Isolated synchronous Virchow lymph node metastasis of sigmoid cancer: 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
backgroundColorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common malignant tumors of the digestive tract. Lymphatic metastases of this tumor are mostly confined to the regional lymph nodes, and distant supraclavicular lymph node metastases are very rare. CASE SUMMARY: In this report, we describe a patient with sigmoid carcinoma and isolated synchronous supraclavicular lymph node metastases. A 56-year-old male presented with a left cervical mass that was confirmed as a lymph node metastasis from sigmoid cancer by several auxiliary examinations. After 6 cycles of chemotherapy with the 5-fluorouracil, leucovorin and oxaliplatin + cetuximab regimen, the sigmoid colon tumor and Virchow's lymph node metastasis were significantly smaller than before treatment, and no new metastatic sites were observed. Considering the effects of chemotherapy on quality of life, resection of the primary tumor was performed followed by 4 cycles of chemotherapy with the original chemotherapy regimen. Virchow's lymph node dissection was selected by mutual consultation between the patient and us. After the second surgery, the patient received capecitabine and cetuximab chemotherapy and did not experience recurrence or metastasis during follow-up.
conclusionIn conclusion, supraclavicular lymph node metastasis without any other solid organ metastasis is a potential metastatic pathway for CRC. In addition, after resection of the primary lesion, postoperative chemotherapy combined with supraclavicular lymph node dissection is feasible for the treatment of patients with CRC and isolated synchronous Virchow's lymph node metastases.
