Resolution of type 1a endoleak in infected endograft using antibiotics: A case report.
Article in Radiology case reports, 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
Aortic endograft infections are associated with significant morbidity and mortality, and must be managed promptly. The definitive treatment is surgical explantation, however conservative approaches using percutaneous intervention have been shown to be successful in some cases. Notably, there is no documented case of an infected EVAR and subsequent endoleak that was managed solely by antibiotics. We present a case of a 91 year old male with an infected endograft and subsequent type 1a endoleak. He was not a surgical candidate, and a conservative approach to management was taken. Remarkably, after prolonged antibiotic therapy, both the infection and the type 1a endoleak resolved. This case suggests treating the primary endograft infection in nonsurgical candidates may also lead to the resolution of associated endoleaks. Further research is needed to understand the potential of antibiotics alone in similar cases.
