A giant degenerative uterine leiomyoma mimicking an ovarian neoplasm: Case report.
Article in SAGE open medical case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Uterine leiomyoma, also referred to as fibroid or myoma, is a prevalent benign tumor that can present with a range of clinical manifestations. The symptoms, which vary based on the tumor's location, size, and number, include pain, constipation, urinary disturbances, and abnormal menstrual bleeding. Certain types of uterine leiomyomas, such as pedunculated subserosal myomas or large degenerating cystic myomas, may closely mimic ovarian tumors, leading to significant diagnostic and management challenges. In this report, we present the case of a 47-year-old woman who experienced severe dyspnea and abdominal distension. Comprehensive radiological evaluation revealed a massive lesion, with both solid and cystic components, occupying the entire abdominopelvic cavity. Histological analysis confirmed the diagnosis of cellular leiomyoma. This case underscores the importance of considering degenerative cystic myoma in the differential diagnosis of large, cystic intra-abdominal tumors of unknown origin, to avoid misdiagnosis and ensure appropriate management.
