Simultaneous Acute Appendicitis and Isolated Common Iliac Artery Aneurysm: A Case Report.

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
This case report presents the rare simultaneous occurrence of acute appendicitis and a large right common iliac artery aneurysm in a 69-year-old male with a history of diabetes and hypertension. The patient presented with right lower quadrant abdominal pain and a pulsatile mass. Diagnostic imaging via computed tomography angiography revealed a 95 × 75 mm fusiform aneurysm and radiologic signs of acute appendicitis. Given the high risk of aneurysmal rupture and the presence of symptomatic appendicitis, a combined open surgical approach was undertaken. This involved aneurysm repair with a Dacron graft and standard appendectomy. Histopathology confirmed acute suppurative appendicitis and atherosclerotic changes in the aneurysm wall. The patient recovered well postoperatively, with imaging confirming graft patency and no residual inflammation. This case highlights the importance of comprehensive imaging and a multidisciplinary surgical strategy when managing concurrent intra-abdominal vascular and gastrointestinal emergencies.
