Perioperative Complications in Patients Undergoing Simultaneous Bilateral Lumboscopic Nephrectomy.
Article in Cureus, 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
BACKGROUND AND
aimBilateral nephrectomy is necessary to optimize the condition of patients undergoing renal transplantation. Our simultaneous lumboscopic technique is scarcely documented but may offer benefits for patients with end-stage renal disease in the transplant protocol. This study aimed to identify major postoperative complications associated with this approach. This study aims to determine the frequency and characteristics of postoperative complications of grade ≥3, according to the Clavien-Dindo classification, in patients undergoing simultaneous bilateral lumboscopic nephrectomy. METHODOLOGY: A retrospective cohort study was conducted on patients undergoing simultaneous bilateral lumboscopic nephrectomy with left nephroureterectomy and endoscopic bladder cuff excision, between January 2015 and February 2024. Clinical and surgical variables, major complications, and transfusion requirements were analyzed.
resultsSeventeen patients were included, with a mean age of 42.2 years and a female predominance (11, 64.7%). All were on renal replacement therapy. The most frequent indication was recurrent urinary tract infections associated with vesicoureteral reflux (11, 64.7%). The mean operative time was 228.2 minutes, with an average blood loss of 141.7 mL. According to the Clavien-Dindo classification, two grade III, two grade II, and three grade I complications were reported. Postoperative transfusions were required in 6 (35.3%) patients. No vascular or visceral complications occurred. Six patients successfully underwent renal transplantation.
conclusionsSimultaneous bilateral lumboscopic nephrectomy, including nephroureterectomy with bladder cuff excision, is a safe and feasible technique in renal transplant candidates, with an acceptable rate of major complications and preservation of the previous dialysis modality.
