Posterior fossa giant adenoid cystic carcinoma with skull base invasion mimicking glomus jugulare: A case report and review of literature.

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
The author describes a rare case of giant adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) mimicking large paraganglioma with lower cranial nerve palsy. A 60-year-old female presented with a progressive increase in postauricular swelling with unilateral hearing loss, facial deviation, difficulty in swallowing, and hoarseness of voice. MRI brain showed highly vascular infiltrating and osteolytic mass suggestive of large glomus jugulare versus sarcoma. It was completely engulfing the jugular foramen and lower cranial nerves with bony erosion of the jugular foramen and occipital condyle. The whole mastoid was filled with the tumor. On digital subtraction angiography the majority of blood supply was from the occipital branch of the external carotid artery and vertebral artery. The patient underwent percutaneous embolization followed by external carotid ligation and resection of the mass. The postoperative course was uneventful. Histopathology was suggestive of mixed ACCs. The patient received radiotherapy. After 1 year of follow up no recurrence or distant metastasis was noted.
