Chronic Ureteral Compression From a Thrombosed Iliac Artery Aneurysm: A Manifestation of Aortoiliac Aneurysmal Disease.

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
Ureteral obstruction caused by iliac artery aneurysms is uncommon and typically results from acute aneurysmal expansion or rupture. We describe a rare presentation in which chronic external compression from a large, thrombosed iliac artery aneurysm led to persistent left-sided hydronephrosis requiring serial ureteral stent exchanges in a 69-year-old male patient. The patient had an extensive vascular history, including prior aortoiliac aneurysm repair, and was not a candidate for further surgical intervention. Sequential CT imaging consistently demonstrated a stable, multilobulated thrombosed internal iliac artery aneurysm displacing the left ureter into a tortuous course. This case highlights an unusual mechanism of chronic ureteral obstruction and underscores the importance of recognizing vascular causes in patients with recurrent obstruction and complex vascular anatomy.
