Pelvic arteriovenous malformation (AVM) with recurrent hematuria: A case report.
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 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
introductionArteriovenous malformation (AVM) leads to a direct connection between arterial and venous networks, in which capillary branches are not involved. Pelvic AVM is a benign and rare condition causing severe pain, hematuria, and rectal or vaginal bleeding. CASE PRESENTATION: A 36-year-old woman presented with five months history of hematuria. Her medical history was unremarkable, and laboratory findings were all within normal ranges. Abdominopelvic computed tomography (CT) scan revealed a vascular mass in the left lateral pelvis that extended to the bladder neck and was suggestive of an AVM. The patient underwent a laparotomy for the resection of AVM. The first angiography revealed an AVM in the left internal iliac artery. The patient underwent embolization with coil and gel foam. The second angiography revealed complete obstruction of the left internal iliac artery due to multiple coils and AVM of the right internal iliac artery (RIIA), embolized with glue and lipiodol. A week later, venography revealed another left iliac vein malformation embolized with foam sclerotherapy. Forty days later, the third angiography revealed another AVM in the right iliac artery, embolized with three vials of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). Following two months of follow-up, the symptoms did not return. DISCUSSION: The present study reported a rare case of recurrent pelvic AVM causing painless hematuria in a female patient. The lesion was treated with several angioembolization sessions.
conclusionAngioembolization is one of the main therapeutic options for AVM. Appropriate material should be precisely chosen for AVM embolization regarding the AVM's location, size, and condition.
