A rare presentation of retroperitoneal liposarcoma presented with jejunal intussusception: An interesting radiological 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
A jejunal intussusception as a presentation of retroperitoneal liposarcoma (RLPS) is a rare occurrence. The majority of RLPS are presented as an abdominal mass, however, having a jejunal obstruction is an interesting case. The aim is to describe the management of jejunal intussusception secondary to atypical lipomatous tumours with concurrent RLPS. A 61-year-old lady presented with a sudden onset of intestinal obstruction with 1 month of constitutional symptoms and an enlarging right lumbar mass. Computed tomography showed a small bowel intussusception with diffuse peritoneal and retroperitoneal lipomatosis. Emergency exploratory laparotomy, segmental bowel resection, and partial excision of intraperitoneal mesenteric lipoma were performed. A stage En-bloc resection of the RLPS and right nephrectomy was done later. However, she refused for subsequent surgery. A complete resection is the gold standard in managing RLPS. In this report, the management is rendered not to the standard as the patient first presented with intestinal obstruction requiring emergency reduction with a piecemeal resection. A stage surgery was required to determine a promising prognosis, but the patient refused such surgery. A small bowel intussusception in adults is rare but is mostly caused by a tumor or neoplasm. Early recognition of the complexity of the case should be preempted and referred to the tertiary team for further definitive surgery. Patient exhaustion from the subsequent surgery might hamper the only management available for the case.
