Duodenal neuroendocrine tumor after bilateral breast cancer with type 1 neurofibromatosis: a case report.

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
backgroundYoung women with NF1 are at a high risk of developing breast cancer. Although they are at risk for abdominal tumors, such as gastrointestinal stromal tumors and neuroendocrine tumors, follow-up strategies for other tumors after breast cancer have not yet been established. Here, we present a case of duodenal neuroendocrine tumor found during follow-up after bilateral mastectomy for breast cancer with type 1 neurofibromatosis (NF1), for which pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) and lymphadenectomy were performed. CASE PRESENTATION: A 46-year-old woman with NF1 was referred to our hospital for treatment of a duodenal submucosal tumor. Her previous operative history included bilateral mastectomy for breast cancer: right total mastectomy and left partial mastectomy performed 9 and 5 years ago, respectively. Her daughter was confirmed to have NF1, but her parents were unclear. Although she had no recurrence or symptoms during the follow-up for her breast cancer, she wished to undergo 18-fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) for systemic screening. FDG-PET demonstrated FDG accumulation in the duodenal tumor with a maximum standardized uptake value of 5.78. Endoscopy revealed a 20-mm-diameter tumor in the second duodenal portion, and endoscopic biopsy suggested a NET G1. We performed PD and lymphadenectomy for complete. She was doing well without recurrence and was followed up with PET tomography-computed tomography.
conclusionsEarly detection of gastrointestinal tumors is difficult, because most of them are asymptomatic. Gastrointestinal screening is important for patients with NF1, and PD with lymphadenectomy is feasible for managing duodenal neuroendocrine tumors, depending on their size.
