Intraosseous vascular malformation of the skull: a case report and literature review.
Article in Archives of craniofacial surgery, 2024. 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
A 59-year-old woman presented to our clinic with a 3.5× 3-cm protruding mass on her forehead. A skull X-ray revealed a radiolucent osteolytic lesion on the left side of the frontal bone. Additionally, computed tomography showed a 3.1× 1.7× 3.6-cm mass exhibiting a "sunburst" pattern situated between the outer and inner tables of the skull, just superior and lateral to the left frontal sinus. This pattern suggested the presence of an intraosseous vascular malformation (IVM). The lesion was approached via a bicoronal incision. En-bloc resection was performed, removing the mass along with approximately 0.5 cm of the surrounding normal bone without injury to the exposed frontal sinus mucosa. The exposed mucosa was reinforced with a galeal flap, and cranioplasty with bone cement was performed to repair the resulting bony defect. Pathological examination confirmed a diagnosis of intraosseous cavernous-type malformation with mixed cavernous and capillary histological features. We report this case of IVM and review the existing literature, highlighting the satisfactory functional and aesthetic outcomes after surgery.
