Early percutaneous antegrade-retrograde rendezvous repair of a transected ureter-a real therapeutic option.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2022. 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 46-year-old female underwent elective laparoscopic hysterectomy. Seven days post-operatively, she presented with urinary leak from the vagina. Computed tomography urogram demonstrated a right complete ureteric transection with leakage of urine into the pelvis and fistulation into the vagina. A rendezvous procedure was performed via a retrograde cystoscopic approach during which a guidewire was used to cannulate the right ureteric orifice and coiled in the retroperitoneal cavity. Subsequently, via a right percutaneous nephrostomy, a guidewire was advanced through the site of ureteric transection, which was followed by a snare catheter to bring the retrograde wire externally. A nephroureteric stent was then inserted. Twelve weeks later, the nephroureteric stent was exchanged for a ureteric stent for 6 months. A subsequent retrograde ureterogram showed complete healing of the ureter. The ureteric stent was removed and follow-up ultrasounds revealed no hydronephrosis. Percutaneous rendezvous procedures represent an effective option to treat this challenging condition.
