Intramuscular Myxoma of the Flexor Carpi Ulnaris Causing Cubital Tunnel Syndrome: 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
Introduction: Intramuscular myxomas are rare, benign mesenchymal tumors which commonly arise in muscle of the upper limb, pelvis, abdominal tissue, spine, or facial muscle. There are few case reports of intramuscular myxomas, and none of these describe intramuscular myxoma as a cause of compressive neuropathy. Case Report: We describe the case of a 67-year-old woman who presented to us with a 1-year history of progressive enlargement of a painless right elbow mass. She gradually developed increasing numbness and tingling in her right small finger, which was worse at night. She underwent cubital tunnel release with concurrent right elbow mass excision of the flexor carpi ulnaris muscle. Histology showed intramuscular myxoma. Postoperatively, she had a complete resolution of her symptoms with a good functional outcome. Conclusion: This is the first known case of intramuscular myxoma within the flexor carpi ulnaris causing compressive neuropathy of the ulnar nerve at the elbow.
