Massive congenital cervicofacial desmoid-type fibromatosis in a 5-month-old infant.

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
Desmoid-type fibromatosis (DF) is a borderline tumor of soft tissues that has low malignant potential but described as infiltrative, locally aggressive and rapidly growing. In the pediatric population, it occurs in the head and neck. Presentation varies based on tumor size and location. Despite the high recurrence rate, surgical excision remains the modality of choice with. Here, we report a case of a 5-month-old boy, with extensive head and neck DF that was managed twice with conservative debulking surgery through a combined transoral-transcervical approach. On 2-year follow-up, he was gaining weight with no developmental delay and had no clinical evidence tumor regrowth.
