Suspicion of Recurrent Osteosarcoma in a Patient with Pseudotumour Adjacent To the Endoprosthesis.

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
Purpose: Pseudotumor is a rare complication after arthroplasty, most often of the hip joint, in response to metal particles present in the implant. There are merely sporadic reports of pseudotumor in patients with bone sarcoma after sparing surgery with endoprosthesis implant. The aim of this study is to present the characteristic imaging features of pseudotumor. Case report: We present a case of a 21-year-old male patient in whom a scheduled follow-up ultrasound revealed a painless lesion suspected of local recurrence at the border of the endoprosthesis and the bone stump 3.5 years after the end of treatment for osteosarcoma of the femur. Histopathology of the biopsy specimen revealed that the lesion was a pseudotumor. Conclusions: Although pseudotumor is sporadic in patients treated with endoprosthesis for bone sarcoma, their prolonged survival could bear the risk of such a complication. Imaging studies, in particular ultrasound, may be helpful in differentiating from local recurrence of sarcoma, however, the histopathology of the specimen obtained by open biopsy at a reference center is crucial for the final diagnosis.
