Growing teratoma syndrome: diagnostic challenges and outcomes.
Article in Archives of gynecology and obstetrics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposeThe aim of this case report is to emphasize the significance of the growing teratoma syndrome. Growing teratoma syndrome is frequently misdiagnosed due to its low prevalence, with an estimated incidence of 19% among all immature ovarian teratomas and a lack of experience among healthcare professionals. It is characterized by the growth of benign tumoral tissue during or after chemotherapy for malignant germ cell tumors. CASE REPORT: Our case is about a 46-year-old patient diagnosed with an immature teratoma who was treated unsuccessfully with surgery and chemotherapy. The patient was then referred to our hospital for a second opinion, where this unknown entity was diagnosed and underwent complete surgical debulking, including abdominal wall resection and subsequent repair.
conclusionPhysicians need to be aware of rapidly growing masses during or after chemotherapy because early recognition of this syndrome is essential for the adequate treatment of our patients.
