Clinicopathological characterization of tall cell carcinoma with reversed polarity of the breast: A case report and review of the litterature.

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
introductionTall cell carcinoma of the breast with reverse polarity (TCCRP) is a recently described rare entity with low potential for malignancy which exhibits morphological features with tall cell variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma. Immunohistochemical and molecular studies help establish the diagnosis. CASE REPORT: We report the case of a 45-year-old woman with no significant medical or surgical history who presented with mastodynia. Physical examination was negative. Screening by bilateral mammography revealed a mass of the right breast which was classified as 4B. The mass was surgically excised. The pathological report concluded to a TCCRP of the breast with free margins. The tumor cells were negative for hormone receptors as well as for the Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor-2 (HER2neu). The patient underwent a sentinel lymph node dissection that was negative followed by loco-regional radiotherapy. Chemotherapy and endocrine therapy were not indicated for the patient. After 24 months of follow-up, no signs of loco-regional or distant recurrences have been identified. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: TCCRP is a rare entity that has been recently introduced in the WHO classification of breast cancer. It is usually a triple negative tumor, negative to TTF1 and thyroglobulin with low proliferation index, and a low potential for malignancy. Wide excision is the keystone of the treatment; however, chemotherapy and radiotherapy are still controversial due to lack of evidence.
conclusionTCCRP is a rare entity, which carries an excellent prognosis. A proper diagnosis is essential to conduct the best treatment next to a careful follow-up due to the ambiguous natural history of this rare entity. PAPERS THAT HAVE BEEN PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED AS MEETING ABSTRACTS: None.
