Right hepatectomy due to portal vein thrombosis in vasculobiliary injury following laparoscopic cholecystectomy: a case report.
Article in Journal of medical case reports, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
introductionVasculobiliary injury composed of bile duct, portal vein and hepatic artery injury is a rare, but the most severe, complication after cholecystectomy that may require hepatectomy or even urgent liver transplantation. CASE PRESENTATION: We present a case of a 36-year-old Caucasian woman with a biliary sepsis and a large right liver lobe abscess due to an extreme vasculobiliary injury after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Bismuth type IV biliary duct injury, portal vein thrombosis and injury of right hepatic artery were identified, resulting in life-threatening septic episodes. Right hepatectomy with Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy and reconstruction of her portal vein with a vein allograft were performed. She fully recovered and remained well during 3 years of follow-up.
conclusionsAlthough rare, the impact of vasculobiliary injuries after cholecystectomy highlights the need for constant alertness and prompt management in order to minimize the risk of the routine operative procedure. Hepatectomy with biliary and vascular reconstruction should be considered early in the management of vasculobiliary injury to avoid the development of life-threatening consequences.
