Post-Caesarean Huge Isthmocele with Multiple Endometriomas and Cervical Stenosis: Laparoscopic Excision and Repair.
Article in Journal of obstetrics and gynaecology of India, 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
Background: Cesarean scar defects or isthmoceles are increasingly detected in the recent times due to the rise in cesarean rates worldwide. They may develop due to poor healing at myometrial site. The pouch accumulates the menstrual blood and very rarely in long standing cases develops endometriomas in the wall. Case presentation: A 30-year-old woman, para 1 living 1 with previous cesarean delivery 9 years back, presented to us with secondary infertility, chronic pelvic pain and post menstrual bleeding. A routine Transvaginal ultrasonography (TVS) showed a large fluid filled outpouching adjoining the uterine scar line, in communication with endometrial cavity. T2 weighted magnetic resonance Imaging (MRI) showed a huge isthmocele arising from the scar defect at lower uterine segment measuring 96 x 60 x52 mm with multiple endometrial rests in the wall showing shading and hypo intensity. The ishtmocele was laparoscopically excised and defect closed in two layers with hysteroscopic transillumination guidance. On hisptopathlogical examination, the lining of isthmocele had endocervical epithelium with thick fibromuscular tissue and focal areas of endometriosis. Postoperative period was uneventful and patient was discharged on third postoperative day. The patient was relieved of her pain abdomen and postmenstrual bleeding at 6 months follow-up. Conclusion: Laparoscopic approach is the preferred surgical technique in huge isthmoceles. Endometrioma develop within the wall of the pseudosac during natural course of the disease in longstanding ishthmoceles. Meticulous closure of uterine incision during cesarean section making sure that edges are taken properly into the stiches along with proper antibiotic coverage in cases with premature rupture of membranes (PROM) can prevent occurrence of isthmocele. Early diagnosis and surgical repair can prevent the progressive disease and Cesarean scar defect Syndrome.
