Delayed Iatrogenic Direct Carotid Cavernous Fistula Following Flow Diversion for Aneurysm With Spontaneous Healing: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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
An abnormal connection between the carotid artery and cavernous sinus is referred to as a carotid cavernous fistula (CCF). A direct CCF results when the connection occurs between the intracranial internal carotid artery (ICA) and the cavernous sinus. These events are typically the result of a head injury, but can also be iatrogenic, resulting from various intracranial procedures. Direct CCF occurrences rarely heal spontaneously due to the high flow rate across the fistula. In this report, we present an uncommon case involving a delayed iatrogenic direct CCF, which developed following the placement of a pipeline flow-diverting stent that was used to treat a cerebral aneurysm. Interestingly, this unusual iatrogenic direct CCF subsequently spontaneously resolved within a few months. To our knowledge, this is the only case of a delayed CCF occurring with the use of a flow-diverting sent, which then resolved on its own. This report recounts our experience with the case.
