Beyond the Surface: A Case Report of Verrucous Carcinoma in a Young Female.
Article in Cureus, 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
Verrucous carcinoma is a rare, low-grade variant of squamous cell carcinoma, characterised by slow growth and local invasiveness. While typically observed in older individuals, it can also present in younger patients, posing diagnostic challenges. A 30-year-old female presented to the obstetrics and gynaecology department with a three-month history of a foul-smelling, ulcerative perineal mass measuring 15 × 10 cm. Histopathological analysis confirmed the diagnosis of verrucous carcinoma. The patient had significant anaemia and required transfusion therapy prior to surgery. A radical vulvectomy with reconstruction using a myocutaneous flap was performed. The surgical approach involved wide local excision with a 1 cm margin around the tumour, followed by defect reconstruction. Postoperative recovery was uneventful, and histopathological examination confirmed complete excision with clear surgical margins. Verrucous carcinoma of the vulva is rare, particularly in young females, and early recognition is crucial for effective management. This case underscores the importance of accurate diagnosis and timely surgical intervention to ensure optimal outcomes. A multidisciplinary approach and comprehensive care were essential for successful treatment and recovery. Given the tumour's potential for local recurrence, careful long-term follow-up is recommended.
