Desmoid tumor causing large bowel obstruction: an extremely rare diagnosis with an innovative treatment approach.
Article in Journal of surgical 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
Desmoid tumors are rare, benign, slow-growing, fibroblastic neoplasms that originate from musculoaponeurotic structures throughout the body. Desmoid tumors originating from the abdominal wall or retroperitoneum are extraintestinal lesions that can rarely infiltrate the small bowel or stomach, let alone compress the colon, which is an extraordinary incident leading to mechanical bowel obstruction. Here, we present a rare case of large bowel obstruction caused by a desmoid tumor originating mostly from the abdominal wall that invaded the splenic flexure and stomach in a patient with no history of familial adenomatous polyposis or prior surgical procedures. The extracolonic compression causing obstruction was treated initially with colonic stenting. Such a method of treatment is infrequent with extracolonic lesions since the possibility of migration or failure to release the obstruction is significantly high. The obstruction was released successfully followed by surgery.
