Mixed Trabecular and Mucinous Carcinoid Arising in the Background of a Mature Ovarian Cystic Teratoma.

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
Ovarian carcinoid tumors, originating from mature ovarian cystic teratomas (dermoid cysts), are rare neuroendocrine tumors. The synchronous occurrence of trabecular and mucinous carcinoid tumors within a single ovarian teratoma is infrequent and has limited documentation. We present the case of a 67-year-old postmenopausal woman presenting with abdominal pain, constipation, and urinary retention, but without features of carcinoid syndrome. Ultrasonography identified a complex, multiloculated cystic mass in the right ovary. Laboratory assessments, including CA-125 levels, were unremarkable. The cyst was aspirated and surgically excised, with the patient experiencing an uncomplicated recovery. Histopathological and immunohistochemical analyses confirmed a mixed trabecular and mucinous carcinoid tumor within the teratoma. A six-month follow-up ultrasound revealed no recurrence, and the patient remained symptom-free. This case highlights the importance of considering synchronous, asymptomatic carcinoid tumors in mature ovarian teratomas during gross and histopathological examinations. Additionally, the presence of a mucinous carcinoid should warrant a high suspicion of metastasis and subsequent recurrence. Further research is needed to establish management and recurrence monitoring guidelines.
