Primary Intrahepatic Biliary Neuroendocrine Neoplasms: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Review in Journal of gastrointestinal cancer, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
introductionIntrahepatic biliary neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) are rare neoplasms originating from neuroendocrine cells in the intrahepatic bile ducts. Patients often present without hormone-related symptoms but are admitted due to jaundice or abdominal pain. PRESENTATION OF CASE: This case report describes a 57-year-old female patient who experienced intermittent upper abdominal pain for one month prior to admission. A computed tomography (CT) scan at a local hospital revealed an intrahepatic space-occupying lesion. Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) at our hospital identified a mass at the root of the left hepatic duct, accompanied by secondary dilation of the left intrahepatic bile ducts. Liver function tests and tumor markers were within normal ranges, and no jaundice or metastatic signs were observed. The patient underwent robot-assisted left hemihepatectomy and cholecystectomy, with a smooth postoperative recovery. Pathological examination confirmed a neuroendocrine tumor (NET G2), measuring 2.2×2×1.6 cm. Postoperative positron emission tomography / computedtomography (PET/CT) scans detected no tumors elsewhere, confirming the intrahepatic bile duct as the primary site.
conclusionBiliary NENs are exceedingly rare and challenging to diagnose preoperatively. Surgical resection remains the most effective treatment for achieving cure or prolonging survival.
