Renal Endometriosis in a Postmenopausal Female Mimics Renal Cell Carcinoma.

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 61-year-old postmenopausal female with a past medical history of type 2 diabetes, nephrolithiasis, and recurrent urinary tract infections presented to an outpatient urology clinic with a chief complaint of urinary frequency, urgency, and burning after micturition. Associated symptoms included nausea, a low-grade fever with chills, and right flank pain. After treatment with antibiotics did not relieve all of her symptoms, imaging was obtained, showing a cystic mass with calcifications in the right kidney. Following laparoscopic partial right nephrectomy and total hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, pathological examination of the right kidney mass highlighted endometrial stromal cells consistent with endometriosis of the right kidney. The left ovary also contained endometrial stromal cells, confirming another diagnosis of endometriosis of the left ovary. This case highlights the importance of considering renal endometriosis in the differential diagnosis of renal masses in women, even if they are postmenopausal.
