Giant bilateral primary scrotal lipoma along with lipomas in multiple sites of the body: a case report and literature review.
Article in Translational andrology and urology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Mesenchymal neoplasms of the scrotum are extremely rare in the clinical practices, in which lipoma is the most common benign neoplasm of them. Primary scrotal lipoma refers to the lipoma originated from scrotal wall. We reported a rare case of a 47-year-old man who suffered from bilateral giant primary scrotal lipoma along with lipomas in multiple sites of the body. Scrotal ultrasound indicated that huge hypoechogenic masses were observed in the bilateral scrotums. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) indicated increased fat density in the scrotal areas. Surgical resection was performed on both scrotal neoplasms. Diagnosis of lipoma was confirmed by the pathological examination through the morphological observation as well as the absence of murine double minute2 (MDM2) gene amplification in the fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) test. After five months of follow-up, the wound of the patient recovered well and no sign of local recurrence was observed. Based on the literature review, very few cases of primary scrotal lipoma were reported in the scientific literature up to date, and this is the first report of bilateral primary scrotal lipoma along with multiple lipomas of the body. We presented this case as a rare phenomenon. Although primary scrotal lipoma is rare, clinicians should take it into account when encountering similar scrotal lesions and know the methods for diagnosis and how to make differential diagnosis with other diseases, which is associated with the patient's treatment strategy and prognosis.
