Antenatal Diagnosis and Management of a Sacrococcygeal Teratoma in a Monochorionic Diamniotic Twin Pregnancy: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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
We present a case of a sacrococcygeal teratoma (SCT) diagnosed antenatally in one fetus of a monochorionic diamniotic twin pregnancy. A 39-year-old gravida with a history of hypothyroidism was referred at 12 weeks' gestation, when monochorionicity was confirmed. A routine second-trimester ultrasound revealed a small presacral cystic mass in Twin A, which progressively enlarged throughout pregnancy. Fetal magnetic resonance imaging at 26 weeks confirmed a well-circumscribed presacral lesion without solid components, consistent with an Altman Type I SCT. Owing to progressive growth and the associated risk of rupture, delivery was achieved by cesarean section at 36+5 weeks. Postnatal examination confirmed a large sacral mass in Twin A, with normal neonatal adaptation to extrauterine life. Surgical resection is planned within the first month of life. This case underscores the importance of prenatal imaging and multidisciplinary perinatal management in optimizing outcomes for fetuses with SCT.
