Arteriovenous haemangioma of the vas deferens: a case report and literature review.

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
Arteriovenous haemangioma of the vas deferens is an extremely rare entity in clinical practice. To date, there have been no clinical or pathological cases reported in Medline, Embase or other published English literature. Herein, a 50-year-old male who presented with right scrotal pain for 4 years after vasectomy was admitted to our hospital. One painful nodule was palpable in the right scrotum on physical examination. Color Doppler ultrasound merely showed dilation of the epididymis and no additional information concerning the painful nodule in the right scrotum. Moreover, the laboratory test results were all within normal limits. Ibuprofen was administered to the patient for 2 months with a poor effect, and then spermatic cord block significantly relieved his symptoms. This patient underwent resection of the right painful nodule of the vas deferens under medical advice. Postoperative pathological examinations showed arteriovenous haemangioma of the vas deferens. There were no obvious complications after arteriovenous haemangioma excision, and the right scrotal pain was significantly relieved 1 month later. This article reminds urologists and oncologists that haemangioma can involve the vas deferens and, in addition to spermatic granuloma, might be a cause of post-vasectomy pain syndrome. Cauterization of the vas deferens might have a potential relationship with haemangioma.
