Giant spontaneous epidermal cyst of the labia minora: a rare case report and literature review.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Epidermal cysts are benign subcutaneous masses resulting from the implantation of epithelial cells, following trauma or surgery. Giant spontaneous epidermal cysts of the labia minora are rare. To date, only 3 cases of epidermal cysts located in the labia minora have been reported worldwide. Case description: This study presents a case involving an epidermal cyst of the labia minora with a diameter exceeding 8 cm, accompanied by endometriosis within an episiotomy scar and a concurrent Bartholins's cyst. All lesions were surgically excised, successfully resolving the patient's symptoms, and the final pathological diagnosis confirmed an epidermal cyst and endometriosis. The patient recovered well postoperatively, and follow-up at 3 months revealed no discomfort or complications. Conclusion: This case shows that spontaneous epidermal cysts of the labia minora are very rare and can enlarge rapidly over a short period. Prompt and thorough surgical excision is recommended to prevent recurrence and the potential for malignant transformation.
