Review on Symptomatic pedunculated leiomyomas in pregnancy with special consideration of an example case.
Review in Archives of gynecology and obstetrics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectives/hypothesisSymptomatic pedunculated leiomyomas in pregnancy; review of the literature with special consideration of an example case. STUDY
designRetrospective narrative review with an example case.
methodsSystematic evaluation of 37 reports. EXAMPLE CASE: A 36-year-old Caucasian primigravida was referred symptomatic at 16 + 0 weeks due to a 13,5 cm myoma causing pain, constipation, urine retention and dysesthesias. Our patient underwent myomectomy at 17 + 0 weeks. One pedunculated leiomyoma was successfully removed.
conclusionMyomectomy can be performed and is safe for pedunculated fibroids in pregnancy. Depending on the clinical scenario, surgical removal may be indicated. Based on the size of the fibroids and expected adhesions, a laparotomy is a safe option and is not a contraindication for vaginal birth in the case of pedunculated fibroids. Myomas larger than 10 cm should be removed by laparotomy.
