Laparoscopic management of a gastric liposarcoma with malignant transformation from a gastric lipoma: A rare case report.
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introduction and importanceLiposarcoma is one of the most common mesenchymal neoplasms in adults. Among liposarcomas, gastrointestinal tract involvement is uncommon, and liposarcoma of the stomach is a particularly rare entity, In addition, few cases of gastric liposarcoma with malignant transformation from benign gastric lipoma have been reported. PRESENTATION OF CASE: Here we present the case of a 62-year-old male patient who was diagnosed with gastric liposarcoma and managed with laparoscopic surgical resection. He was first diagnosed with subepithelial lipoma of the stomach 4 years ago and was under observation, but underwent laparoscopic distal gastrectomy due to malignant transformation of gastric lipoma. He has been following up for 1 year after surgery, and there are no recurrence or other complications to date. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: This patient was initially diagnosed with gastric lipoma and was surgically resected after 4 years of observation to show malignant transformation. To the best of our knowledge, this case represents the first report of gastric lipoma demonstrating malignant transformation into gastric liposarcoma.
conclusionGastric lipoma can be transformed into gastric liposarcoma, so if the size is large or the rate of size change is fast, surgical resection is recommended in the early state, and en-bloc resection including node dissection and reconstruction are desirable during surgery.
