Case Report: A case of right ventricular metastasis from cervical cancer presenting with thrombocytopenia: the role of echocardiography and myocardial contrast echocardiography.

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: Cardiac metastasis from cervical cancer is rare and often presents with nonspecific symptoms, leading to diagnostic delays. This case highlights the role of myocardial contrast echocardiography (MCE) in detecting such metastases in long-term cervical cancer survivors. Case presentation: A 63-year-old female with a history of cervical cancer treated 11 years ago presented with thrombocytopenia and respiratory symptoms. Imaging revealed a mobile mass in the right ventricle extending into the pulmonary artery. MCE showed peripheral rim enhancement, indicative of a necrotic malignant tumor, confirmed as metastatic squamous cell carcinoma. Therapeutic intervention: The patient underwent surgical resection of the right ventricular mass and tricuspid valvuloplasty. Her thrombocytopenia resolved post-surgery, and no further oncological treatment was needed. Conclusion: MCE is a valuable tool for diagnosing cardiac metastases, especially in cervical cancer survivors. This case underscores the need for long-term follow-up and imaging surveillance due to the risk of delayed and atypical metastasis.
