Coil embolization of an intracranial aneurysm in an infant with tuberous sclerosis complex: A case report and literature review.
Article in Surgical neurology international, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
backgroundTuberous sclerosis (TS) is a multiorgan neurocutaneous syndrome. Vascular manifestations are often extracranial. There is a paucity of cases involving TS combined with intracranial aneurysms reported in the literature. As a result, treatment has not been well described. CASE DESCRIPTION: We report the case of a 13-month-old female infant with a prior diagnosis of TS that was found to have new onset of left eye ptosis, anisocoria, and papillary mydriasis indicative of left third cranial nerve palsy. A magnetic resonance angiogram (MRA) of the brain revealed a left internal carotid artery (ICA) aneurysm. Endovascular embolization was determined to be the best option for treatment. After a successful balloon test occlusion with neuromonitoring, the left internal carotid artery was sacrificed via coil embolization.
conclusionsThis is only the third case report of endovascular coil embolization of an intracranial aneurysm in an infant with TS. We report no complications during the procedure, and the patient was discharged with resolving left third cranial nerve palsy. Neither surgical nor endovascular outcomes have been well described in the literature. Follow-up on this patient will be useful for establishing protocols of treatment.
