Piezo-Assisted Transmaxillary Approach for Microscope-Enabled Debulking of Infratemporal Schwannoma.
Article in Journal of maxillofacial and oral surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
the rationaleRetromaxillary lesions pose diagnostic and treatment delays due to their location. With classical methods posing great morbidity, advances like Peizotome and microscope-assisted surgeries have gained relevance for efficient management with lesser complications and faster postoperative recovery. CASE: A 65-year-old male patient presents with complaints of pain and blurring of the right eye for 10 days. DIAGNOSIS: Clinical and radiological evaluation revealed right eye proptosis with a slow-growing retromaxillary infratemporal tumor with a likely diagnosis of trigeminal schwannoma. TREATMENT: Surgical management was aided by a piezo-assisted transantral approach for microscope-enabled debulking of the tumor. OUTCOMES: The final histopathological diagnosis was of schwannoma with the patient having a good postsurgical recovery. Takeaway lesson: Peizotome-assisted transmaxillary approach for microscopic excision of retromaxillary lesions can be considered as a surgical marvel which combines two varied modes of treatment for better patient outcomes.
