Spotlight on the Unusual: A Case Report of Adrenal Angiosarcoma Presenting as an Abdominal Mass.
Article in Cureus, 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
This case discusses the challenges of diagnosing adrenal angiosarcoma, a rare and aggressive malignancy that constitutes an exceptionally small proportion of adrenal tumors. Angiosarcomas originate from blood or lymphatic vessel endothelium, with soft tissue and cutaneous forms being more prevalent than those arising in visceral organs such as the adrenal glands. This report describes a 47-year-old female patient who presented with a large right adrenal mass identified through imaging and was subsequently diagnosed with primary adrenal angiosarcoma. This disease may remain asymptomatic or present with nonspecific symptoms, making early detection challenging. Prompt identification and surgical management are essential, as the tumor exhibits a high propensity for aggressive behavior and metastatic spread. While no standardized treatment guidelines exist, adrenalectomy and systemic therapy are commonly employed strategies. Prognosis remains unfavorable, often influenced by tumor size, necrosis, and metastatic involvement at diagnosis. This case highlights the importance of accurate diagnostic methods and early intervention to enhance patient outcomes.
