Laparoscopic assisted mini-ECIRS for ectopic kidney lithiasis: A case report and literature review.
Review in CEN case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
introductionEctopic kidney is a rare anatomic variant with an incidence of about 1 in 900. Renal stones can pose a challenge when a standard approach is not possible. Laparoscopic-assisted endourologic procedure can be a feasible and safe choice. CASE REPORT AND LITERATURE REVIEW: We present a case of 32 years old man with spastic quadriplegia, megacolon and pelvic kidney undergoing intervention of laparoscopic-assisted Mini ECIRS for staghorn stone of the left pelvic kidney. To the best of our knowledge, only 59 cases are reported in the literature concerning laparoscopically assisted encdourologic treatment which seems a feasible, safe and adaptable technique in selected complex cases.
conclusionLaparoscopic-assisted mini ECIRS is a viable option for the treatment of ectopic kidney stones. This technique should be considered when anatomical anomalies are encountered, to avoid puncture-related complications.
