A Unique Presentation of Diffuse Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasm of Bile Duct Successfully Treated With Orthotopic Liver Transplant and Pancreaticoduodenectomy Procedure: 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
Biliary intraepithelial neoplasm (BilIN) and intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm of the bile duct (IPMN-B) are recognized as the two main precursors to biliary carcinoma. Surgical resection is the mainstay of treatment, with pancreaticoduodenectomy for extrahepatic biliary duct disease involving the pancreatic or distal portion of the bile duct, and bile duct and liver resection for perihilar and intrahepatic bile duct involvement. For diffuse IPMN-B with involvement of the entirety of the biliary epithelium of both intrahepatic and extrahepatic biliary systems, there is no well-documented consensus on treatment due to its rarity. Therefore, we present a case of a 56-year-old male with diffuse IPMN-B managed with combined orthotopic liver transplant and pancreaticoduodenectomy. As such, the clinical presentation, diagnostics, and unique course of intervention for our patient are described. This case provides insight into the topic of managing IPMN-Bs, particularly with diffuse biliary tree involvement. With such a rare disease with wildly varied presentations, consensus on a set treatment algorithm is nearly impossible to establish. This case describes one treatment pathway we found to be successful.
