Robotic Type 3B Klatskin Tumor Resection: Technique of Unification Ductoplasty for Roux-en-Y Biliary Reconstruction.
Article in Journal of gastrointestinal surgery : official journal of the Society for Surgery of the Alimentary Tract, 2023. 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
backgroundApplication of robotic platform for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma is an emerging technique requiring expertise in both minimally invasive hepatic resection and biliary reconstruction. Due to oncological principles of trying to achieve tumor-free margins during cholangiocarcinoma operation, surgeons often find multiple sectoral bile ducts above the hilar plate that need to be reconstructed. Creating multiple oligomilimeter hepaticojejunostomy anastomoses is not only technically very challenging but also associated with an increased risk for postoperative bile leak and subsequent anastomotic stricture mandating reinterventions.
methodsTechnical maneuvers to reduce the number of biliary anastomosis had been previously described in open surgical literature. Minimally invasive technique such as simple unification ductoplasty, however, has not been described laparoscopically or robotically.
resultsWe demonstrated a successful unification ductoplasty during a robotic type 3B Klatskin tumor resection according to Bismuth-Corlette classification. Creation of multiple anastomoses in this type of operation was able to be avoided.
conclusionRobotic platform facilitates ductoplasty for biliary reconstruction during Klatskin tumor resection.
