Exo- and endoscopic two-step approach for recurrent vestibular schwannomas following surgical resection and radiosurgery: How I do it.

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
Intracanalicular residual vestibular schwannoma (VS) after surgical resection is known to cause recurrence. Lesions demonstrating progression despite adjuvant stereotactic radiosurgery necessitate salvage surgery with meticulous tumour resection to prevent recurrence. We describe our exo- and endoscopic two-step approach (EETA), employing an exoscope to remove the extracanalicular component and an endoscope to remove the intracanalicular component under direct visualisation of the fundus. EETA is a viable option for treating recurrent VS, as it enables enhanced visualisation of both extra- and intracanalicular lesions, including the fundus.
