Angioembolization for massive pelvic hematoma after prostatic urethral lift.

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
Introduction: Pelvic hematomas are a rare complication of prostatic urethral lift. We would like to report the first case of massive pelvic hematoma after prostatic urethral lift that was successfully managed by selective angioembolization. Case presentation: An 83-year-old gentleman with benign prostatic hyperplasia underwent prostatic urethral lift. Although the procedure was uneventful, he developed shock while in the recovery room. Urgent contrast computed tomography scan showed a large heterogenous hematoma at the right pelvis extending to the right retroperitoneum with contrast extravasation noted. Urgent angiogram confirmed extravasation from the right prostatic artery. Angioembolization with coils and 33% N-butyl cyanoacrylate glue was successfully performed. Conclusion: Prostatic urethral lift can be complicated by the rare massive pelvic hematoma, possibly more common in small prostates. With a prompt contrast computed tomography scan, pelvic hematomas can be managed with angioembolization first and hopefully prevent open exploratory surgery.
