Case Report: Surgical management of giant hepatic cavernous haemangioma with Kasabach-Merritt syndrome in an adult.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 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
A 25-year-old woman presented with a progressively enlarging abdominal mass and severe coagulopathy (fibrinogen 0.6 g/L). Imaging revealed a giant, predominantly calcified hepatic lesion lacking typical nodular enhancement, raising suspicion for hamartoma or cystadenoma. Despite aggressive fibrinogen replacement, coagulopathy persisted. Multidisciplinary team discussion confirmed Kasabach-Merritt syndrome secondary to giant hepatic haemangioma. Anatomical left lateral sectionectomy was performed successfully. Histopathology confirmed cavernous haemangioma with thrombosis, infarction, and calcification. Coagulation parameters normalized immediately postoperatively. This case highlights the diagnostic pitfall of non-enhancing giant hepatic haemangioma and underscores the curative role of early surgical resection in adult Kasabach-Merritt syndrome.
