Literature review and case report of post-circumcision keloid management.

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
Keloid following circumcision has been described in the literature despite the rarity of its occurrence in penile skin. In this paper, we review the literature and report the successful management of post-circumcision keloid scarring in a 2-year-old boy. After circumcision a 2-year-old boy of African origin developed keloid scarring at the circumcision site. This was treated with three intralesional injections of triamcinolone acetate over 3 months, followed by surgical excision. There was no recurrence at 6 months after excision. To our knowledge this is the 12th case of keloid following paediatric circumcision described in the literature. There is a wide range of techniques described but all are recurrence free at 6 months following repeated intralesional triamcinolone acetate injection and surgical excision. While there is no current consensus in treating post-circumcision keloid, we find that intralesional injection followed by surgical excision provides an acceptable aesthetic result, which is recurrence free.
