Excision of a large trichilemmal carcinoma of the back with staged reconstruction using biodegradable temporizing matrix (BTM): A case report.

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
Trichilemmal carcinomas (TC) are rare skin malignancies that arise from the external root sheet of a hair follicle. Their incidence increases with advanced age and they most commonly occur on sun exposed skin or areas of significant hair growth. They vary significantly in size and appearance. Surgical excision is the most common treatment option. We report the case of a large trichilemmal carcinoma of the back occurring in a woman with poorly controlled diabetes mellitus. The lesion was excised resulting in a very large defect, which was reconstructed in a staged process using biodegradable temporising matrix (BTM) and split-skin grafting. There was 95 % graft take at first graft check and the wound was fully healed at 6 weeks post grafting. BTM, already an established adjunct in the reconstruction of burns, degloving injuries and soft tissue infections, provided an enhanced aesthetic outcome and successful wound healing in this complex skin lesion excision.
