The Triad of Gastric Leiomyosarcoma, Functioning Extra-Adrenal Paraganglioma and Pulmonary Chondroma

Carney, J. Aidan, Sheps, Sheldon G., Go, Vay L. W., Gordon, Hymie·1977·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

The association of three uncommon neoplasms — gastric leiomyosarcoma, functioning extra-adrenal paraganglioma and pulmonary chondroma — in two patients and the occurrence of two of these tumors in two other patients suggests that this association is not fortuitous and may constitute a syndrome.Case SummariesCase 1. A 25-year-old woman had anomalies of the external and middle ears at birth. At the age of 12, an asymptomatic mass, which proved to be a paraganglioma (carotid-body tumor), was excised from the left side of the neck. When 24 years of age, she had massive hematemesis. At gastrectomy, there were five leiomyosarcomas . . .

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
