Simultaneous excision of pelvic lipoma and robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Lipoma is a benign mesenchymal tumour that can develop in any part of the body containing adipose tissue. Very few cases of pelvic lipomas have been reported in the literature. Due to their location and slow growth, pelvic lipomas are often asymptomatic for a prolonged time. Thus, on diagnosis, they are usually found to be of considerable size. Due to their size, pelvic lipomas can present causing bladder outlet obstruction, lymphoedema, abdominal and pelvic pain, and constipation, as well as present with deep vein thrombosis (DVT) like symptoms. Patients with cancer have a much higher risk of developing DVT. Here, we describe a case of an incidental finding of pelvic lipoma mimicking DVT in a patient with organ-confined prostate cancer. He eventually underwent simultaneous robot-assisted radical prostatectomy and lipoma excision.
