Unexpected massive bleeding during the modified LeFort III advancement surgery for Crouzon syndrome: 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
Key Clinical Message: Vigilant monitoring for postoperative complications, including bleeding and dysrhythmia, is crucial in patients with craniosynostosis syndromes like Crouzon syndrome undergoing craniofacial surgery, with a thorough evaluation, including coagulation tests, assisting in diagnosing underlying conditions such as von Willebrand disease subtype 1 to inform appropriate management strategies. Abstract: Crouzon syndrome is a rare genetic disorder affecting craniofacial structures. Its etiology is the premature fusion of cranial sutures. The LeFort III advancement surgery is a commonly used approach to correct malformations related to midface hypoplasia. Complications following surgical treatment of craniosynostosis and craniofacial syndromes can include both intracranial and extracranial problems. Reporting of this syndrome and the surgery complications, in addition to consideration of other differential diagnoses, can help improve the treatment plan and surgery outcomes. The aim of the article is to report a 14-year-old female with Crouzon syndrome who underwent the modified LeFort III osteotomy and developed unexpected massive bleeding during the surgery. Post-surgery, she experienced complications including dysrhythmia, hypothermia, and cyanosis. Treatment included fluid therapy, blood transfusions, and antibiotic therapy for suspected septic shock. Differential diagnosis was disseminated intravascular coagulation but was ruled out. Post-discharge, coagulation tests suggested von Willebrand disease subtype 1 as the diagnosis. Excessive bleeding during surgery for craniosynostosis syndromes is a significant and concerning issue in the surgical management of Crouzon syndrome. For patients with von Willebrand disease who are candidates for elective surgeries, von Willebrand factor concentrates or recombinant von Willebrand factor can be used.
