Lymphoma as a Rare Cause of Ureteral Obstruction: A Case Report.
Article in Case reports in urology, 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
Extranodal marginal zone lymphoma involving the urinary system is a rare manifestation of lymphoma. Ureteric obstruction by this subtype of lymphoma can mimic other more common genitourinary or retroperitoneal conditions. The current case describes a 42-year-old female who presented with abdominal pain and hydronephrosis without findings supportive of renal or ureteric calculus. Diagnostic work-up was unremarkable, even with the employment of endoscopic evaluation. The patient's ureter was dilated and she underwent both stenting and eventual percutaneous nephrostomy tube placement. Ultimately, she underwent surgical intervention with ureteral reimplantation and associated histopathological analysis was able to definitively diagnose a low-grade B-cell extranodal marginal zone lymphoma. The present case highlights the diagnostic challenges associated with this rare etiology of urinary obstruction. It also emphasizes the importance of considering atypical malignancy in the differential diagnosis of recurrent ureteral obstruction, especially when traditional radiological imaging and clinical assessment are unrevealing.
