Mature cystic teratoma originating in the broad ligament: a case report.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 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
Teratomas are germ cell tumors, commonly affecting ovaries. Teratomas rarely affect extragonadal tissues. Few cases of teratomas occurring in extragonadal tissues have been reported in the past. However, no studies have reported cases of primary teratomas occurring in the broad ligament. In this study, we report a case of a sexually inactive young woman with a 3-day history of lower abdominal pain. B-ultrasound examination revealed an abnormal strong echogenicity mass in the left adnexal area. An exploratory laparotomy was performed on her. The surgery revealed normal size and appearance of both ovaries and uterus. However, a cyst was observed in the left broad ligament, which was diagnosed as benign mature teratoma based on pathology. In this study, we report a rare case of broad ligament teratoma. The clinical data enrich our understanding of teratomas and provide a reference for further studies.
