Selecting the best surgical approach in various cases of prolapsed pedunculated submucosal fibroids: A case series.
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
introductionThe pedunculated fibroid is classically managed through vaginal myomectomy. However, vaginal myomectomy cannot be safely and easily performed in all cases. We reviewed three cases of prolapsed pedunculated submucosal fibroids, each with a specific surgical difficulty. PRESENTATION OF CASES: The first case had a prolapsed pedunculated uterine fibroid in pregnancy and underwent fibroid extirpation during an emergency cesarean section through the lower uterine segment incision. The second case was a nulliparous woman with recurrent abnormal uterine bleeding due to a giant prolapsed pedunculated uterine fibroid who underwent laparotomy fibroid extirpation through posterior colpotomy, preserving the uterus. The third case had a prolapsed pedunculated uterine fibroid in perimenopause with multiple fibroids and underwent fibroid stalk excision through an isthmic incision to facilitate a safe laparotomy hysterectomy procedure. DISCUSSION: Vaginal removal has become the standard surgical method for prolapsed pedunculated submucous fibroids. However, some possible consequences of vaginal myomectomy include severe stalk bleeding, infection, and uterus inversion induced by excessive traction. Therefore, specific approaches are needed in some circumstances.
conclusionCustomised surgical approaches provided safe and efficient access to the prolapsed pedunculated fibroid stalk during myomectomy or hysterectomy.
