Surgical resection of late extrahepatic metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma 11 years after initial diagnosis: case report and literature review.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the second most common cause of cancer mortality worldwide. Liver resection is considered the pillar of curative treatment, although it is usually reserved for early-stage localized disease since the presence of metastases carries a poor prognosis. Despite advances in imaging, surgical techniques, and systemic therapy, the recurrence rate after oncologic resection remains high, even with localized disease. In the setting of extrahepatic HCC recurrence, there is no consensus regarding the best treatment strategy. Nevertheless, while the development of metastasis can be considered an expression of systemic disease, surgical resection may prolong survival. We report the case of a patient with a history of an oncologic hepatic resection for HCC, successfully treated with resection of an isolated peritoneal cavity metastasis. This case demonstrates that an aggressive approach involving the resection of extrahepatic HCC metastasis should be considered in select patients with the intention of achieving prolonged survival.
