Chondroblastoma of the Right Distal Femur Medial Condyle: A Case Report.
Article in Journal of orthopaedic 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
Introduction: Chondroblastoma is a rare, benign but locally aggressive bone tumor typically affecting adolescents and young adults. It commonly arises in the epiphyseal region of long bones, particularly the distal femur. Despite its benign nature, it can cause significant joint dysfunction, pain, and disability. Early diagnosis is critical for preserving joint function and preventing recurrence. Case Report: A 15-year-old female presented with progressive right knee pain of 6 months' duration, worsened by weight-bearing and minimally relieved by analgesics. Clinical examination revealed tenderness and immobile swelling in the region of the medial femoral condyle. Imaging showed characteristic "chicken-wire" calcification, and computed tomography-guided biopsy confirmed chondroblastoma. The patient underwent extended curettage, iliac crest bone grafting, and the use of synthetic bone substitutes. Post-operative rehabilitation showed a good recovery in range of motion and limb function, with no recurrence at follow-up. Conclusion: Early diagnosis and appropriate surgical management, including extended curettage and bone grafting, are essential to prevent recurrence and restore joint function in distal femur chondroblastoma. Functional outcomes are generally favorable with timely and targeted treatment.
