Effective Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection of a Huge Esophageal Liposarcoma: 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
This case report presents the successful endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) of a well-differentiated esophageal liposarcoma in a 51-year-old male with persistent dysphagia. The cause was initially diagnosed as a 10 cm pedunculated lesion extending from the upper esophageal sphincter to the mid-esophagus. An ESD was chosen over traditional surgery because it is less invasive. The procedure involved a precise submucosal injection and excision with special techniques to manage bleeding from a central vessel. Despite the extraction challenges owing to the size of the lesion, it was successfully removed orally. A histopathological examination of the 8.3×4.2×2.3 cm specimen revealed the characteristic features of a well-differentiated liposarcoma, including MDM2 and CDK4 positivity. The follow-up revealed no recurrence, and active surveillance has been performed since. This report highlights the versatility of ESD in treating significant esophageal tumors and provides evidence for its efficacy as a minimally invasive alternative.
