Use of intraoperative ultrasound in a benign epidermoid cyst-like tumor lesion with testicular preservation: Case report.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2025. 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
Epidermoid cysts are rare benign lesions in adolescence, commonly presenting as slow-growing, nonpalpable masses lined with squamous epithelium, filled with keratinized material. Testicular ultrasound is the study of choice for the diagnosis of these lesions, and its intraoperative use has been shown to be beneficial for the patient's hormonal and reproductive prognosis. In this study, we present the case of a 17-year-old adolescent male who came to the urology office with a sensation of mass in the right testicle with negative tumor markers. Tumor resection was performed with intraoperative ultrasound guidance and freezing biopsy, with confirmation of the diagnosis of squamous cell cyst, which allowed the decision to preserve the testicle. Epidermoid cysts are benign testicular lesions that commonly do not require orchiectomy. The correct imaging identification with pre- and intraoperative ultrasound is acquiring an important role in the management of these cases by allowing testicular preservation decisions, which offers a better hormonal and reproductive prognosis for patients.
