Kidney Autotransplantation and "Debranch-First" Technique for Thoracoabdominal Stent-Graft Infection: Surgical Management of a 22-Year-Old Man With Midaortic Syndrome and Infection of Aortic and Renal Stent Grafts.

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
objectiveTo present the surgical management of a 22-year-old patient with midaortic syndrome, symptomatic for claudication and renovascular hypertension, with infected aortic and renal stent grafts. KEY STEPS: Procedures were performed as follows: 1) right renal autotransplantation through a transperitoneal approach and midline abdominal incision; 2) thoracotomy with left visceral rotation and visceral vessel exposure; 3) left-heart bypass and "debranch-first" technique, with warm blood perfusion for the splanchnic vessels and cold Custodiol solution for renal perfusion; 4) aortic replacement with a tubular xenopericardium graft; and 5) separate reattachment of visceral vessel to the main tubular graft. POTENTIAL PITFALLS: Recurrent infections of the xenopericardium graft, kidney parenchyma loss, and major complications such as spinal cord ischemia, represent potential pitfalls to this procedure. TAKE-HOME MESSAGE: Kidney autotransplantation allows right renal-infected stent graft removal before in situ thoracoabdominal reconstruction through left thoracoabdominal access, preserving renal function against renovascular hypertension.
