Primary hepatic malignant triton tumor mimicking hepatocellular carcinoma by demonstrating arterial-phase hypervascularity and subsequent washout on dynamic contrast-enhanced imaging: a case report and literature review.

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
Background: Malignant Triton tumor (MTT) is a relatively rare subtype of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST) characterized by rhabdomyosarcoma differentiation. There are no distinct features of MTT, and it is easy to misdiagnose preoperatively. Case presentation: Here, we describe a rare case of primary hepatic MTT in a 56-year-old male who presented with nonspecific abdominal pain for 1 day. Magnetic resonance imaging and abdominal computed tomography revealed an extremely large mass located in the right liver with intratumoral hemorrhage, arterial-phase hypervascularity and subsequent washout on dynamic contrast-enhanced imaging and the possibility of intrahepatic metastasis. Tumor marker levels revealed only an elevated level of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP: 5304.0 ng/mL). Then, he received transcatheter arterial chemoembolization combined with lenvatinib and pembrolizumab, and he was diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma. After 3 months of neoadjuvant therapy, we resected the hepatic cancer and adherent diaphragmatic pleura. MTT was confirmed by postoperative pathology and immunohistochemistry. Conclusion: Despite the preoperative diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma with a rising serum AFP level, typical CT and MRI findings, histopathology assessment showing MPNST with rhabdomyosarcoma differentiation confirms the diagnosis of primary hepatic MTT.
