Early progression of a pancreatic metastasis of synovial sarcoma after pancreatectomy.

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
backgroundSynovial sarcoma is a malignant tumor that constitutes up to 10% of all soft-tissue sarcomas. The most frequent metastatic sites of synovial sarcoma are the lungs, lymph nodes, and bone, whereas pancreatic metastasis is extremely rare. Here, we report a case of pancreatic metastasis of synovial sarcoma. CASE PRESENTATION: Nine years before presentation, a 31-year-old woman underwent extensive resection of the primary tumor after chemotherapy for left upper extremity synovial sarcoma. Six months before presentation, interscapulothoracic amputation was performed for an enlarged mass in the left upper extremity; the patient was treated with pazopanib. Three months before presentation, chest computed tomography showed multiple lung metastases; during subsequent follow-up, abdominal computed tomography revealed a pancreatic metastasis of synovial sarcoma. The doubling time of the pancreatic tumor was 14 days, and it grew rapidly. Furthermore, treatment-resistant pancreatitis symptoms were detected; thus, we performed distal pancreatectomy and administered one course of a 70% dose of trabectedin. However, the patient died of rapid progression of lung metastasis and respiratory failure within 2 months after surgery.
conclusionsPancreatectomy may be carefully performed in cases of isolated pancreatic metastasis. However, the presence of other distant extrapancreatic metastases (e.g., uncontrolled lung metastases) may rule out pancreatectomy treatment.
