Huge gastric plexiform fibromyxoma presenting as pyemia by rupture of tumor: 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
backgroundPlexiform fibromyxoma (PF) is a rare mesenchymal tumor, with limited case reports worldwide. Common clinical symptoms are abdominal discomfort and bleeding signs, which frequently present slow-onset in reported cases. Herein, we report a case of gastric PF presenting as acute onset and with pyemia accom-panying tumor rupture. We resected the tumor as well as the distal gastric, bulbus duodeni and gallbladder for treatment in emergency surgery. Notably, before the onset of the disease, the patient received coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines. CASE SUMMARY: A 26-year-old man was admitted to our hospital, due to abdominal pain and fever after having received COVID-19 vaccines. Laboratory examination indicated severe sepsis. Computed tomography scan revealed a large mass in the abdomen. Deformation of the gastrointestinal tract was seen during gastroscopy. After failure of anti-infective treatment and symptoms of shock developed, he received an emergency surgery. We found a huge and partly ruptured mass, with thick purulence. Microscopically, the mass was composed of spindle cells with clarified cytoplasm, accompanied by myxoid stroma and arborizing blood vessels. Immunohistochemistry showed the tumor cells as positive for smooth muscle actin and succinate dehydrogenase subunit B but negative for DOG-1 and CD117. Finally, the patient was diagnosed with gastric PF and discharged from the hospital.
conclusionGastric PF manifesting as tumor rupture combined with pyemia is rare. Timely surgery is critical for optimal prognosis.
