Axillary Accessory Breast Cancer Performed Reconstruction Using a Local Flap: A Case Report.
Article in 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
introductionAccessory breast cancer is rare, with approximately two-thirds of cases arising in the axillary region. Wide local excision is commonly performed; however, large axillary defects can lead to postoperative scar contractures and limited range of motion in the ipsilateral upper limb. CASE PRESENTATION: A 67-year-old woman presented with a palpable mass and erythema in the left axilla. Physical examination revealed a 2-cm indurated lesion with erythema in the left axilla. Ultrasonography revealed an irregular 14-mm hypoechoic mass with suspected dermal invasion. Skin punch biopsy suggested the presence of invasive carcinoma in the dermis, suggestive of invasive lobular carcinoma on immunohistochemistry. Contrast-enhanced breast MRI revealed no abnormal breast enhancement. Systemic evaluation revealed no evidence of distant metastases. The patient underwent a wide local excision of the left axillary lesion with axillary lymph node dissection, followed by local skin flap reconstruction of the axillary defect. Histopathological examination revealed an invasive lobular carcinoma of pleomorphic type (pT1cN1aM0, pStage IIA, triple-negative subtype), associated with heterotopic breast tissue and lobular carcinoma
conclusionsDuring the surgical treatment of axillary accessory breast cancer, reconstructive procedures should be considered based on the size of the skin defect to prevent postoperative scar contracture.
