Delayed Massive Haemoptysis Following EBUS-TBNA Revealing a Pseudoaneurysm of an Ectopic Bronchial Artery: A Rare Complication at the Crossroads of Interventional Pulmonology and Radiology.
Article in Respirology case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) is widely considered a safe and minimally invasive procedure for the evaluation of mediastinal lymphadenopathy. Although complications are rare, severe haemorrhagic events may occur, particularly when vascular structures are punctured. A 31-year-old woman with Budd-Chiari syndrome underwent EBUS-TBNA for hypermetabolic mediastinal lymph nodes. Sampling was uneventful, but she developed massive haemoptysis 7 days later. Contrast-enhanced CT and bronchoscopy identified two 4R lymph node pseudoaneurysms, confirmed by angiography. The lesion was successfully treated with selective microcoil embolisation. No recurrence was observed at two-month follow-up, despite resuming anticoagulation. Delayed pseudoaneurysm is an exceptionally rare but potentially life-threatening complication of EBUS-TBNA. Pre-procedural Doppler assessment, awareness of vascular variants, and timely imaging are essential. Endovascular embolisation is an effective, minimally invasive treatment. Early recognition and multidisciplinary management are crucial to prevent catastrophic outcomes.
