Bevacizumab: The future of chronic subdural hematoma.
Review in Interventional neuroradiology : journal of peritherapeutic neuroradiology, surgical procedures and related neurosciences, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Bevacizumab (BCZ), commercially known as Avastin, is a monoclonal antibody that targets vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Initially recognized as a breakthrough in oncology, it has since gained FDA approval for various ocular conditions and more recently, for the treatment of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). Bevacizumab's ability to inhibit excessive neovascularization suggests it may have a potential role in treating chronic subdural hematomas (cSDH). Recent studies have shown that the pathophysiology of cSDH is more complex than previously understood, with VEGF concentrations in subdural fluid significantly exceeding those in serum, contributing to the high recurrence rates. Intra-arterial administration of bevacizumab has shown promising results in recent case series against chronic subdural hematoma, and may be a viable alternative to middle meningeal artery embolization. If successful, this treatment could significantly decrease the rate of recurrence and result in lower rates of severe neurological complications such as visual loss. This literature review explores the connection between bevacizumab and cSDH, focusing on the pharmacological, safety, and delivery aspects of this approach while summarizing the current evidence supporting its use.
