Individualized Anesthetic Management of a Patient With Pheochromocytoma and Concurrent Breast Cancer: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. 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
Pheochromocytomas are rare tumors that present a challenge for surgical and anesthetic management due to their ability to produce significant amounts of catecholamines. This case report highlights the successful management of a 49-year-old woman simultaneously diagnosed with neurofibromatosis type 1, pheochromocytoma, and breast cancer. A key decision by the multidisciplinary team involving endocrinology, general surgery, senology, intensive care, and anesthesiology was to prioritize breast cancer surgery over pheochromocytoma resection. This decision considered the potential for improved prognosis and the need to minimize chemotherapy dosage. The case emphasizes the importance of thorough perioperative preparation, including assessing end-organ damage and optimizing medical therapy. Intraoperative management effectively navigated periods prone to catecholamine release, and postoperative care was closely monitored. This case demonstrates that with meticulous planning, a multidisciplinary approach, and a precise anesthetic strategy, safe anesthesia is achievable for patients with pheochromocytoma undergoing major elective surgeries other than pheochromocytoma resection, adding valuable knowledge to a scarcely documented clinical area.
