Vulvar dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans, an unusual anatomical location.

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
Vulvar dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a rare pathology. So far, only limited number of cases have been reported in literature. In the present case, we discuss a 38-year-old female presented with a painful left vulvar mass. She had a prior history of a left vulvar mass excision which was histopathologically confirmed as benign spindle cell epithelioma. The current mass, extending from the left labia majora to the left gluteal fold, was assessed via contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), revealing a well-defined, lobulated lesion with proximity to the distal urethra and clitoris without definite invasion. The patient underwent a wide local excision, radical vulvectomy, and left inguinofemoral lymphadenectomy. Postoperatively, she experienced fever, vulvar swelling, and dysuria. Follow-up MRI demonstrated total resolution of the vulvar mass and collection with no recurrence. Histopathology identified the mass as DFSP, with all surgical margins negative.
