Abdominal wall inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor initially misdiagnosed as leiomyoma: a rare case report.
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. 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
Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor is a rare mesenchymal neoplasm that most commonly arises in the lung and intra-abdominal soft tissues. Involvement of the anterior abdominal wall is exceptionally uncommon and can lead to diagnostic difficulty. We report a case of a 34-year-old male who presented with a painless, enlarging supraumbilical mass. Imaging demonstrated a heterogeneously enhancing lesion with intra-abdominal extension and close proximity to bowel loops. Core needle biopsy suggested a benign spindle cell tumor consistent with leiomyoma. Due to diagnostic uncertainty, complete surgical excision was performed. Final histopathology confirmed inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor with clear margins. The postoperative course was uneventful, and follow-up was arranged because of the risk of recurrence. This case highlights the diagnostic challenges of abdominal wall inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors and emphasizes the role of surgery in achieving definitive diagnosis and treatment.
