Retrorectal schwannoma: a case report of an extremely rare location.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2026. 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
Schwannomas are tumors that arise from Schwann cells in the neural sheath. They are usually benign tumors and rarely occur in the retroperitoneal space. Retro rectal schwannomas often lack specific symptoms and present non-orienting radiologic imaging characteristics, making the diagnosis challenging. We herein report the case of a 66-year-old female patient who presented with abdominal pain and urinary retention. A presacral mass was detected on imaging and the patient underwent a surgical excision of the tumor. The diagnosis of such lesions is rigorous due to their uncommon location and very unspecific symptoms, and complete surgical resection remains the curative treatment.
