Minimally invasive surgery for bilateral large basal ganglia hemorrhage: a rare case report and insights from literature.
Article in AME 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
Background: Acute bilateral basal ganglia hemorrhage is a rare and life-threatening condition, often associated with high morbidity and mortality. Timely diagnosis and intervention are crucial to improving outcomes. This report presents a case successfully managed with minimally invasive surgery (MIS). Case Description: A 44-year-old male, previously independent in daily activities with a medical history of hypertension, presented to the emergency department with severely altered consciousness [Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score 6]. Immediate intubation and admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) were initiated. Computed tomography (CT) angiography confirmed no evidence of vascular abnormalities or aneurysms. Tubular retractor-assisted microsurgical evacuation was performed to remove the hematoma and reduce intracranial pressure (ICP). The patient demonstrated neurological improvement, including spontaneous eye opening by postoperative day 3 and discharge from the ICU on day 10, highlighting the effectiveness of the intervention. He was subsequently discharged from the hospital on day 15 and transferred to a rehabilitation center for further recovery. Bilateral basal ganglia hemorrhage is rare, and its management often poses challenges due to high morbidity and mortality rates. Conclusions: This case underscores the importance of prompt diagnosis and intervention in bilateral basal ganglia hemorrhage. MIS offers a viable therapeutic option that may enhance recovery while reducing surgical risks.
