Renal oncocytoma: Α case report and literature review.
Review in Oncotarget, 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

Renal oncocytoma is a rare benign kidney tumor arising from the intercalated cells of the distal renal tubules. These tumors are often asymptomatic and incidentally discovered on imaging. This report presents an 82-year-old female patient with gross hematuria, who was subsequently diagnosed with a small renal oncocytoma. A computed tomography (CT) scan of the abdomen revealed a lesion in the upper left kidney, diagnosed as a renal oncocytoma by histopathological examination of a tissue specimen obtained via a CT-guided biopsy. After multidisciplinary review, the tumor board recommended local treatment with percutaneous cryoablation due to the lesion’s small size and indolent nature. The patient has been on annual follow-up with imaging showing no disease progression over two years. This case highlights the management considerations for renal oncocytoma, particularly in elderly patients, and underscores the role of biopsy and multidisciplinary evaluation in deciding optimal, minimally invasive treatment strategies for benign renal tumors.
