Endovascular embolisation of a traumatic pseudoaneurysm of the lateral perforating peroneal artery.

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
Pseudoaneurysm of the lateral perforating branch of the peroneal artery is exceedingly rare. To our knowledge, eight cases are described in the current literature, with five occurring as a result of trauma and the remainder being iatrogenic. We present a pseudoaneurysm of the lateral perforating peroneal artery in a professional athlete following an inversion-plantarflexion injury of the ankle. He described persistent pain and fluctuant swelling to the lateral aspect of the right ankle with sudden onset of increased pain and swelling 10 days after the initial injury. Arterial duplex identified a pseudoaneurysm of the right lateral perforating peroneal artery. Endovascular coil embolisation of the aneurysm resulted in almost immediate improvement in symptoms. The patient has since regained full function of the affected ankle. This case report highlights the necessity for clinicians to maintain a high index of suspicion in order to promptly investigate and appropriately manage this pathology.
