Laparoscopic liver resection for a patient of hepatocellular carcinoma with von Willebrand disease: a case report.

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
backgroundThe safety of laparoscopic hepatectomy for inherited coagulation disorders is unclear; however, the safety of open hepatectomy has been reported in several studies. Herein, we report the first case of a laparoscopic hepatectomy for a patient with von Willebrand Disease (VWD). CASE PRESENTATION: A 76-year-old male with a history of chronic hepatitis C and VWD type 2B was advised surgical resection of a 4 cm hepatocellular carcinoma in segment 7 of the liver. The patient was diagnosed with VWD in his 40 s due to gastrointestinal bleeding caused by gastric erosion. The von Willebrand factor (VWF) ristocetin cofactor activity was 30%, and VWF large multimer deficiency and increased ristocetin-induced platelet agglutination were observed. The preoperative platelet count was reduced to 3.5 × 10
conclusionThe indications for laparoscopic hepatectomy in patients with VWD should be carefully considered, and an open approach may still be the standard approach for patients with VWD.
