Surgical treatment of a giant paraophthalmic aneurysm postfailed flow diversion through endoscopic endonasal approach: Technical nuances and review of the literature.
Article in Surgical neurology international, 2024. 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
Background: Giant internal carotid artery (ICA) aneurysms are usually treated through flow diversion, coiling, or a combination of both. However, certain cases that fail the endovascular treatment pose a technical challenge. Case Description: A 68-year-old male presented with gradual visual changes affecting his right eye and was found to have a giant unruptured right paraophthalmic aneurysm. The aneurysm showed growth, and the patient's symptoms worsened despite coiling and flow diversion. Due to the location of this aneurysm and persistent compression of the optic chiasm by the coil mass, his right ICA was sacrificed, and an expanded endoscopic endonasal approach was successfully used to clip the residual aneurysm, remove the coil mass, and thus, decompress the optic chiasm. The patient's visual symptoms improved after that, and post clipping imaging demonstrated adequate occlusion of his right paraophthalmic aneurysm. Conclusion: Recognizing the option of an endoscopic endonasal approach for clipping giant internal carotid aneurysms is of great importance. This approach can be safe and technically successful for the treatment of paraophthalmic aneurysms that fail the typical endovascular treatment.
