Bilateral Ureteral Insertion Into the Bladder Diverticula Caused by Prostatic Enlargement: A Complex Surgical Scenario.

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
Bilateral ureteral insertion into the bladder diverticula is an extremely rare condition, particularly when acquired secondary to longstanding bladder outlet obstruction due to prostatic enlargement. We present a complex surgical management of a 72-year-old male with a history of diabetes mellitus and hypertension, who presented with severe lower urinary tract symptoms, gross hematuria, and clot retention. Imaging revealed marked prostatic enlargement and two large bladder diverticula arising from the right and left lateral bladder walls. During the planned open simple transvesical prostatectomy and bilateral bladder diverticulectomy, both ureters were unexpectedly found to insert into the diverticula. Consequently, the intraoperative plan was modified to include bilateral ureteral reimplantation. This case underscores the diagnostic and surgical challenges in managing bladder outlet obstruction complicated by bilateral ureteral insertion into the bladder diverticula. It highlights the importance of individualized surgical planning in managing such unique urological anomalies.
