Fenestration is a logical and effective treatment for a large primordial cyst with cholesterol granuloma: a case report.

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
A cholesterol granuloma (CG) is characterized by the presence of cholesterol crystals that cause a chronic granulomatous reaction in an enclosed space. It occurs most commonly in the head and neck region, particularly in the middle ear. Although CGs in the maxilla have also been reported, odontogenic cysts in conjunction with CGs in the maxilla are very rare. We herein present a case of a 72-year-old man who developed a large primordial cyst with a maxillary CG that extended into the maxillary sinus, nasal cavity, and infraorbital region, causing left-sided facial swelling and discomfort. We successfully controlled the symptoms and reduced the size of the lesion using the treatment approach for a common odontogenic cyst: fenestration followed by complete excision. This case suggests that fenestration is an effective technique to treat odontogenic cysts with CGs. Although the mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis and growth of CGs are still unknown, our report highlights a potential therapeutic approach for these lesions.
