Tumor recurrence in the inferior vena cava following radical nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma: a case report and review.
Article in Radiology 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
Renal cell carcinoma is a relatively common malignancy in the United States with an estimated incidence of ∼80,000 cases, many of which are found incidentally. Renal cell carcinoma tends to invade vascular structures which can predispose to a host of complications. Although recurrence is common, isolated tumor thrombus recurrence is rare and surgically complex. We report the case of a 70-year-old male with a history of renal cell carcinoma status post nephrectomy 20 years ago who presented with generalized weakness and falls. Imaging revealed an inferior vena cava thrombus and intraluminal biopsy confirmed clear cell renal cell carcinoma. Frequent surveillance is critical for early detection and management of recurrent disease. This case highlights the importance of considering late vascular recurrence even decades after initial treatment.
