Obstetric management for pregnant women with Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome: A UK case report and review of the literature.
Review in International journal of gynaecology and obstetrics: the official organ of the International Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Klippel-Trenaunay Syndrome (KTS) is a rare congenital vascular disorder characterized by extensive capillary and venous malformations that pose unique challenges during pregnancy. This case report discusses the successful management of a 34-year-old pregnant woman with KTS who had two caesarean sections, resulting in the birth of two healthy babies. Despite the lack of evidence-based guidelines for obstetrical management in KTS, a multidisciplinary team collaborated to devise a high-risk thrombosis management plan, involving the use of compression stocking and low molecular weight heparin prophylaxis. The patient's elevated risk of thrombosis, exacerbated during pregnancy, informed the decision of caesarean sections, aligning with finding that in most KTS pregnancies, this method of delivery based on obstetric indications and arteriovenous malformations is chosen. This case highlights the importance of systematic and patient-centered care, advocating for comprehensive obstetric management guidelines to address the unique challenges posed by KTS during pregnancy. Further research is warranted to enhance our understanding and refine guidelines for individuals with vascular abnormalities linked to KTS.
