A rare case of large renal leiomyoma diagnosed histopathologically after surgical management: 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
introductionRenal leiomyoma is a rare renal tumor that originates from smooth muscle. Among all existing benign renal tumors, leiomyoma is one of the least common benign renal tumors. CASE PRESENTATION: We report of a case report of a 43-year-old male complaints of palpable mass on the upper left abdomen, abdominal discomfort and hematuria. Contrast-enhanced CT scan revealed a solid heterogenous mass on the left kidney, adherent to the left abdominal wall and pushed the spleen cranially. Patient underwent radical nephrectomy and histopathology results revealed leiomyoma. Two weeks after surgery, the patient was asymptomatic. DISCUSSION: Imaging of renal leiomyoma may provide a clue with a general finding of a well-defined tumor margin and no local invasion. In our case preoperative CT findings made the initial diagnosis inconclusive since it showed the renal mass was adherent to the abdominal wall. Definitive diagnosis was only possible through histopathologic examination.
conclusionRadical nephrectomy remains as the mainstay of treatment in inconclusive preoperative diagnosis.
