Laparoscopic management of a true broad ligament leiomyoma in a patient with advanced endometriosis and a solitary kidney - A case report and literature review.
Article in Case reports in women's health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Leiomyomas are the most common benign tumours of the female genital tract, and almost always arise from the uterine myometrium. Although extrauterine leiomyomas are rare, they usually develop in sites such as the ovary, broad ligament, round ligament, cervix or abdominal wall. The broad ligament is the most common site of extrauterine leiomyoma involvement, and this unique clinical entity may prove to be a diagnostic or therapeutic challenge, particularly in patients with advanced endometriosis and distorted pelvic anatomy. Herein, we report the case of a large true broad ligament leiomyoma that was discovered during a total laparoscopic hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy in a 47-year-old patient with stage IV endometriosis and a congenital left kidney and left ureter. This case highlights a rare occurrence of a true broad ligament leiomyoma, the challenges associated with preoperative diagnosis, and the laparoscopic approach to its management.
