Parosteal osteosarcoma with high-grade transformation and lung metastasis after 12 years: a rare presentation.
Article in Indian journal of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Parosteal osteosarcoma represents a low-grade, well-differentiated type of cortical surface osteosarcoma with a relatively better prognosis. Systemic metastasis is rare overall and occurs in 10-15% of patients only. Delayed recurrences (>5 years) of parosteal osteosarcoma are even rarer and only few isolated case reports of local recurrence with systemic metastasis occurring beyond 10 years exist in the literature. We present here a case of femoral parosteal osteosarcoma, successfully treated previously, that recurred with high-grade transformation locally and with lung metastasis after 12 years. The patient was managed by lung wedge resection followed by type A1 rotationplasty. Histopathology report confirmed evidence of high-grade transformation (de-differentiation) both locally and at the metastatic site, in view of strong CDK4 and MDM2 nuclear immuno-expression. The present report highlights the importance of long-term follow-up, even for a seemingly less aggressive osteosarcoma variant with identification of a novel pattern of lung metastasis.
