Monophasic pericardial synovial sarcoma in a turkish female patient: a very rare case with cyto-histopathological findings.

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
backgroundThe aim was to present a 35-year-old female patient with diagnosis of monophasic primary pericardial synovial sarcoma (PSS) with cytopathological findings. CASE PRESENTATION: The case with back pain, palpitation and weakness, was diagnosed with pericardial effusion and suspicious mass adjacent to right heart in ultrasonography. Computerized tomography showed mass 12 × 11 × 6.5 cm in size, located in right mid-anterior pericardial area, with heterogeneous internal structure, heterogeneously contrasting right heart and prominent pressure on superior vena cava. Cytopathology of pericardial effusion showed monotonous cells with oval-spindle vesicular nuclei, less amphophilic cytoplasm, evenly distributed chromatin and inconspicuous nucleoli. The pericardial mass was resected incompletely, spindle cell mesenchymal tumor with hypercellular fascicular structure and with infiltrative margins, containing a small amount of loose myxoid stroma, occasionally necrotic areas was observed histopathologically. Immunohistochemical positive reaction was for vimentin, Bcl-2, TLE-1. Accordingly, the case was diagnosed with monophasic PSS.
conclusionsThis case of monophasic primary PSS was an extremely rare malignancy diagnosed with the cytopathological findings.
