Effectiveness of super-selective digital subtraction angiography and 3D rotational digital subtraction venography for a developmental venous anomaly with an arteriovenous malformation: A case report and literature review.

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
Background: Arteriovenous malformation (AVM) and developmental venous anomaly (DVA) rarely coexist. Developing a surgical strategy to treat this co-occurrence is difficult due to the unclear pathogenesis. We report the use of super-selective digital subtraction angiography (DSA) and Three-dimensional (3D) rotational digital subtraction venography (DSV) to develop a surgical strategy for complex AVM draining into a DVA. Case Description: A 58-year-old woman presented with left hemiparesis and unconsciousness. Plain and contrast computed tomography showed a right frontal subcortical hematoma and a heterogeneous contrast lesion anterior to the hematoma, leading to a dilated vessel. The hematoma was removed due to worsening unconsciousness. DSA revealed a right frontal AVM of Spetzler-Martin grade 2 with superficial drainage into a DVA, and 3D-DSV revealed that the intermediate part of the DVA involved normal parenchyma. Interventional transarterial embolization and surgical nidus removal were planned. Preoperative super-selective DSA showed two medullary veins draining from the AVM into the DVA. Thus, we decided to separate the two medullary veins from the nidus. Postoperative angiography revealed complete removal of the AVM and preservation of the DVA. Conclusion: Treating a complex AVM draining into a DVA is challenging; surgeons have to remove only the AVM portion and preserve the DVA. Super-selective DSA and 3D rotational DSV were performed to develop the surgical strategy.
