Congenital cysts of the lower male genitourinary tract: a disorder with various treatment approaches and pitfalls-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
backgroundThe cysts of the male pelvic floor represent a rare clinical entity. Their origin is linked to an altered development of paramesonephric and mesonephric ducts during embryogenesis. CASE PRESENTATION: We report our experience regarding two patients presenting cysts of the ejaculatory system treated with open and mini-invasive surgery. The patients referred to our clinic with nonspecific symptoms and the diagnosis was obtained by radiological investigations. The patient treated with an open approach developed a pelvic purulent collection and a fistula of the prostatic urethra, managed with surgical drainage and prolonged bladder catheterization. On the other hand, the patient treated with laparoscopic approach did not develop any complications. No sexual or ejaculatory disorders were reported.
conclusionsPatients with congenital cysts of the pelvic floor must be adequately informed about the risks and benefits of surgery and a careful counseling is mandatory before surgery. Treatment is recommended for symptomatic patients and an endoscopic approach is associated with a high rate of recurrence. A laparoscopic approach, when possible, is desirable.
