Case Report: Surgery to remove adrenocortical oncocytic carcinoma from an Asian male.

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
Adrenocortical oncocytic carcinoma is a rare type of adrenocortical tumor. Its clinical characteristics and biological behavior need to be further evaluated after the accumulation of cases. Here we report a case of adrenocortical oncocytic carcinoma in an Asian male with scoliosis. We performed an operation on this patient. Because the patient's scoliosis was limited during the operation and the tumor protruded into the chest, we decided to adopt open surgery in the supine position. During the operation, we found a tumor about 8 cm in diameter in the right adrenal region and successfully removed it. The patient recovered well after surgery, and there was no tumor recurrence after one year of follow-up. Pathological results confirmed the diagnosis of adrenocortical oncocytic carcinoma. Pathological features showed tumor cell invasion of adipose tissue, with atypical mitosis and abundant esinophilic cytoplasm. Immunohistochemistry showed that nucleus related antigen (Ki67) index was more than 15% and the positive pathological staining of Synaptophysin (Syn), Melanoma A (Melan A), Inhibin and calretinin. The incidence rate of adrenocortical oncocytic carcinoma is extremely rare. Abdominal Computed tomography (CT) scans and other imaging examination methods are not specific. For larger adrenal tumors, the diagnosis of this disease should be considered. For patients with adrenocortical oncocytic carcinoma who have not yet metastasized, we may achieve sound treatment effects and reduce recurrence by removing the tumor, retroperitoneal fat around the tumor and locoregional lymph nodes.
