Endometrioid adenocarcinoma of the colon arising from rare malignant transformation of extra-gonadal endometrioma.
Article in Gynecologic oncology reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Background: Endometriosis is a common condition with a rare malignant potential. We report a case of a patient with a colon mass who underwent surgery for malignant endometriosis associated cancer.Case: A 70-year-old woman with a pelvic mass who was lost to follow-up for 6 years represented with an enlarging pelvic mass involving the sigmoid colon. The patient underwent colonoscopy which revealed atypical endometrial-type glandular proliferation. She then underwent exploratory laparotomy with total abdominal hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, rectosigmoid resection, and creation of end colostomy. Final pathology revealed endometrioid adenocarcinoma arising from colon serosal endometriosis. Observation or systemic chemotherapy were considered, and patient opted for observation. Conclusion: We report a case of malignant intestinal endometriosis. There is limited evidence to support a standardized approach to treatment due to the rare nature of this disease; the patient opted for observation. By understanding the presentation, diagnostic workup, and outcomes of each patient with malignant endometriosis, future research can be guided to ultimately improve patient outcomes.
