Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Study Data from Department of Urology Surgery Provide New Insights into Liposarcomas (Recurrent metastatic retroperitoneal dedifferentiated liposarcoma: a case report and literature review)

Article Description
Background: Retroperitoneal liposarcoma (RPLPS), a rare tumor, is often treated using surgical procedures as the first choice for treatment. However, there is no consensus on the scope of surgical resection. In addition, the treatment outcomes of conventional radiotherapy and chemotherapy have not been satisfactory, particularly for specific types of LPS, such as dedifferentiated LPS. In this case study, we present a brief review of other cases of RPLPS, highlighting the selection of surgical scope for RPLPS and related adjuvant treatment for advanced RPLPS. Case presentation: A case study is reported regarding an extremely rare recurrent and metastatic retroperitoneal dedifferentiated LPS. The primary RPLPS tumor, with a diameter of 20 cm and a weight of 2.5 kg, occupied the whole left abdomen and adhered to the left kidney. A surgical tumor resection combined with a left nephrectomy is performed. During the 6th -month postoperative follow-up examination, we observed the local recurrence of the tumor in the operation area, in addition to multiple metastatic tumors in both lungs. Further, the prescribed 3-month targeted treatment with anlotinib significantly reduced the size of the metastatic pulmonary tumors. However, the recurrent retroperitoneal tumors showed no significant change in size. Eventually, we observed no substantial evidence of tumor progression, with the patient’s condition under control. Conclusion: The case demonstrated that the postoperative recurrence of widespread RPLPS required R0 resection to cure the disease, considering targeted therapy for advanced RPLPS control.
