Suitability of Robotic-Assisted Surgery for Hepatic Peribiliary Cysts: A Case Report.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Although hepatic peribiliary cysts are generally benign, surgery may be required if the cysts are growing or causing bile duct stenosis. However, few studies have reported the use of robotic surgery for removing hepatic peribiliary cysts. This case report describes a woman in her 50s with a cystic lesion in liver segment III that increased from 33 to 45 mm in 2 years. The patient was asymptomatic; however, robotic subsegmentectomy of segment III was performed owing to concerns about potential malignancy. The cyst was lined by a single layer of cylindrical epithelium without cytological atypia and was pathologically diagnosed as a hepatic peribiliary cyst. Hepatic peribiliary cysts can be monitored if the cyst is diagnosed correctly and the patient has no symptoms. However, surgery is warranted if malignancy cannot be ruled out or the patient is symptomatic. Minimally invasive robotic surgery may be a good option for hepatic peribiliary cysts.
