Abstract
Fibroids are the most common gynecologic tumors. Our case discusses the outcome of a 47-year-old woman who presented to our clinic with cachexia, and a giant abdominal mass. An initial diagnostic imaging workup consisted of X-Ray, CT, and ultrasound and indicated a possible diagnosis of leiomyosarcoma. However, after surgical evaluation, she was diagnosed pathologically with an atypical presentation of a uterine leiomyoma. Our case reviews the epidemiology and presentation of both pathologies, along with the imaging workup, and the operative correlation in our patient.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 5. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 30 March 2018.
All research outputs
#9,619,024
of 34,451,315 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Radiology Case Reports
#22
of 212 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#49,608
of 150,330 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Radiology Case Reports
#1
of 4 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,451,315 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 70th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 212 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.6. This one has done well, scoring higher than 86% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 150,330 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 64% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 4 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than all of them
