Endoscopy-assisted surgical management for a giant axillary cystic lymphangioma: a case report.
Article in Frontiers in surgery, 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
A cystic lymphangioma is a benign malformation that arises from aberrant lymphatic development and commonly occurs in the neck and axilla. While typically asymptomatic, complete surgical excision remains the primary treatment. We present a case of a giant, left axillary cystic lymphangioma (approximately 15 cm × 15 cm × 10 cm) in a young female patient. The following endoscopy-assisted surgical approach was employed: a small incision facilitated initial access and establishment of the operative field, while endoscopy provided magnified visualization of the anatomical relationships between the mass and surrounding structures, enabling precise dissection and complete resection. Histopathological examination confirmed the mass to be a cystic lymphangioma. At the 6-month follow-up, the patient exhibited no complications or recurrence. No reports exist on endoscopic management. The successful management of a cystic lymphangioma in this case offers a valuable reference for the clinical treatment of similar lesions.
