The Surgical Approach Combined With Minimally Invasive Surgery for Sacral Chordoma.

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
Sacral chordomas are malignant, locally aggressive, and rare tumors. Its presentation can be diverse on the entire spine, being more frequent in the sacrococcygeal region. The main treatment is complete surgical resection, which can be performed using different approaches depending on the case. We present the case of a 44-year-old woman with a history of a complex adnexal mass, with an imaging finding of a presacral mass displacing the uterus and rectum, with a histological report of an image-guided biopsy suggestive of a soft-tissue myoepithelioma-like tumor, which was managed with a combined approach: anterior transabdominal laparoscopic and posterior approach, achieving complete tumor resection, without postoperative complications and with the benefits of minimally invasive surgery. The pathology report of the surgical piece was compatible with sacral chordoma.
