A rare case of a sporadic retroperitoneal hemangioblastoma.

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
Hemangioblastoma is a rare, benign, and morphologically distinctive tumor. In most cases, the tumor involves the central nervous system. Extraneural occurrences are rare, with just a few reports of hemangioblastoma situated outside of neural tissue, such as the retroperitoneum. We report a case of sporadic retroperitoneal hemangioblastoma in an 87-year-old male patient, diagnosed as an incidental finding in a CT scan performed because of kidney stone disease. The CT scan showed a mass in the retroperitoneum posterior to the inferior vena cava. The patient reported no remarkable symptoms. We describe our path to diagnosis, the possible differential diagnosis for retroperitoneal masses, and the histopathologic features of the tumor. There are <250 reported extra neuraxial hemangioblastomas and just 14 reported cases situated outside of the neural tissue. Our case is the eighth case report of a hemangioblastoma arising from the soft tissue of the retroperitoneum.
