Preoperative high-precision three-dimensional reconstruction in laparoscopic splenectomy for supramassive splenomegaly: 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: Massive splenomegaly is considered to pose a high risk for laparoscopic splenectomy (LS). We report a case of supramassive splenomegaly wherein the patient successfully underwent LS guided by preoperative three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction. Case presentation: A 35-year-old female had a history of autoimmune hepatitis spanning 4 years, accompanied by progressive splenomegaly. Her spleen had grown to a size of 27.3 cm in diameter, and a consistent decline in her blood cell counts had been noted over the same period. Considering the significant enlargement of the spleen and the technical challenges associated with LS in such instances, a preoperative 3D reconstruction was performed. This 3D model accurately delineated the splenic artery and depicted the positional relationships between the enlarged spleen and nearby organs, thus supporting detailed preoperative planning. Following the surgical route determined in the preoperative planning, 3D assistance enabled the safe ligation of the splenic artery and meticulous separation of the spleen from adjacent tissues. The patient's postoperative recovery was smooth and free from complications. Conclusion: Meticulous preoperative 3D planning may help overcome technical difficulties and enable successful LS even in patients with supramassive splenomegaly.
