Disseminated peritoneal leiomyomatosis after laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy with characteristic molecular cytogenetic findings of uterine leiomyoma.

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
Disseminated peritoneal leiomyomatosis (DPL) is a rare condition characterized by scattered smooth muscle nodules over the peritoneal surfaces. The pathogenesis of DPL remains unclear. Herein, we report a case of DPL occurring 7 years after laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy with morcellation for uterine leiomyomata (UL). We analyzed both the original UL and the subsequent DPL by molecular cytogenetics to assess the role of chromosomal abnormalities in DPL pathobiology. Interestingly, all of the chromosomal aberrations detected in this case of DPL, including r(1)(p34.3q41), del(3)(q23q26.33), and t(12;14)(q14.3;q24.1), are characteristic chromosomal abnormalities detected in UL. Fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis of the initial UL confirmed an interstitial deletion spanning at least 3q24 and 3q25.1, suggesting that functional alteration of a potential gene in this chromosomal region may play a role in DPL development from UL. With the increasing rate of hysterectomy through laparoscopic approach to UL, the unique complications of laparoscopy with morcellation, especially seeding and proliferation of tumor cells over abdominal organs and peritoneum, are becoming more significant and may necessitate review of current surgical protocols to prevent future seeding of the pelvic region with tumor particles.
