Reimplantation of a malleable penile prosthesis in a patient with urethral erosion: a case report.

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
A 58-year-old man, initially treated for erectile dysfunction, presented with erosion of a penile prosthesis through the urethra one year after his surgical intervention. Clinical examination revealed the extrusion of the left penile prosthesis through the urethral meatus, associated with mild local inflammation and a fever of 39°C. The patient underwent manual extraction of the prosthesis, careful and delicate urethral catheterization, and antibiotic therapy. Two months later, he was readmitted for the insertion of a new penile prosthesis in the left corpora cavernosa and was discharged on the second postoperative day without complications. Thus, erosion of a penile prosthesis is a serious complication requiring prompt removal of the prosthesis, effective antibiotic treatment, and proper urethral healing.
