Complete kidney allograft extrusion through a dehiscent wound following graft thrombosis and immunosuppression withdrawal: a case report.
Article in BMC nephrology, 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
backgroundComplete extrusion of a transplanted kidney through a dehiscent abdominal wound is an extremely rare postoperative complication. While wound-related issues after kidney transplantation are not uncommon, such an extreme event is rarely documented. We present a case illustrating the clinical challenges and management considerations of this complication. CASE PRESENTATION: A 36-year-old woman underwent deceased-donor kidney transplantation. Postoperatively, she developed rapid cardiac arrest, severe neuropathic abdominal pain, and probable Cytomegalovirus (CMV) gastroenteritis. Graft thrombosis was subsequently confirmed, and immunosuppressive therapy was discontinued. Over the following weeks, progressive wound dehiscence with purulent discharge led to complete extrusion of the kidney allograft. An urgent transplant nephrectomy was performed. The patient recovered uneventfully and was discharged on postoperative day four.
conclusionThis case underscores the importance of vigilant wound monitoring and multidisciplinary management in transplant recipients, particularly after graft failure and immunosuppression withdrawal. Early recognition of wound compromise and timely surgical intervention are critical to preventing adverse outcomes. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
