Single incision laparoscopic appendectomy with two port: a case of appendiceal mucocele.

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
Laparoscopic appendectomy for the neoplasm of the appendix remains a controversial subject in the literature. The main concern regarding laparoscopic treatment for the neoplasm of the appendix is incomplete resection and rupture of the tumor into the peritoneal cavity. There is a slight increase in the rate of invasion of the surgical margins in laparoscopic interventions. However, the prognosis of the neoplasm of the appendix treated with laparoscopic appendectomy is not different from an open surgical technique. A series of cases have been reported in the literature concerning the success rate of single-incision laparoscopic appendectomy used in the treatment of acute appendicitis. In our clinic, two-port laparoscopic appendectomy through a single incision was successfully performed on a 45-year-old male patient diagnosed with an appendiceal mucocele. Despite some concerns in the literature about laparoscopic treatment of neoplasms of the appendix, we suggest that single-incision laparoscopic appendectomy can be successfully performed in patients diagnosed with neoplasms of the appendix.
