Hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma managed with minimally invasive surgery: A case report.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 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
backgroundHepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (HEHE) is a rare malignant vascular liver tumor diagnosed by histopathological evaluation. Standardized treatment is challenging because of its rarity; hepatectomy is preferred for solitary lesions and multiple transplantations. There is no consensus on the optimal treatment for HEHE; however, surgical excision is often considered effective. This report presents a case of initially suspected cholangiocarcinoma or renal cell carcinoma (RCC) metastasis, which was later confirmed as HEHE, with no recurrence during follow-up. CASE SUMMARY: A 52-year-old man with a history of left nephrectomy for RCC presented with an incidentally detected liver mass and nonspecific abdominal discomfort. Imaging revealed a 3-cm centripetal enhancing lesion in the right hepatic dome with indeterminate malignant potential. The patient underwent a laparoscopic right anterior sectionectomy and remained recurrence-free without complications during the 3-year follow-up period.
conclusionManaging HEHE is challenging. Accurate diagnosis and surgical options, such as resection or transplantation, are essential with tailored multidisciplinary follow-up. The authors have read the CARE Checklist (2016) and the manuscript was prepared and revised according to the CARE Checklist (2016).
