1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundPerihilar cholangiocarcinoma (pCCA) is one of the most challenging tumours for hepatic surgeons. To reach radical resection, it is mandatory to extend the hepatectomy to segment 1 and biliary tract. With the advent of minimally invasive techniques, an increasing number of centres have begun to treat this tumour using robotic or laparoscopic approaches, demonstrating the ability to maintain oncological standards as well as morbidity and mortality criteria. PATIENTS AND

methodsThis video presents a case of a 79-year-old man with pCCA Bismuth type IIIa, undergoing right hepatectomy extended to segment 1 and biliary tract after preoperative optimization including biliary drainage and portal vein and right hepatic vein embolization. Unlike conventional right hepatectomy, extending transection to include segment 1 requires identifying the plane defined by the Arantius duct.

resultsTo reach this plane, we suggest using three approaches, previously described in other hepatectomies, were employed: dorsal and caudal approaches to the middle hepatic vein (MHV) and an extraglissonian intrahepatic approach to the left portal pedicle.

conclusionWith this method, we achieved oncologically radical resection of pCCA using minimally invasive surgical techniques.
