Pure 3D-endoscopic removal of supra-infratentorial tumor via Paramedian Supracerebellar Infratentorial Transtentorial (SCITTT) keyhole approach.

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
backgroundAlthough the purely endoscopic supracerebellar infratentorial approach has been widely used for the resection of pineal region and posterior third ventricular tumors, its application in tumors extending across the tentorium is rarely reported. Here, we present a case of a supra-infratentorial tumor resected via a purely 3D-endoscopic supracerebellar infratentorial transtentorial (SCITTT) keyhole approach.
methodsUnder a purely 3D endoscopic system, the SCITTT approach was performed through a paramedian keyhole craniotomy to resect a supra-infratentorial tumor. The tumor originated from the edge of right tentorium and extended both supra- and infratentorially. The infratentorial tumor was dissected and removed via the supracerebellar corridor. Subsequently, the tentorium was incised circumferentially around the tumor origin, followed by piecemeal resection of the supratentorial component.
conclusionUsing an approximately 2-3 cm keyhole craniotomy combined with the SCITTT approach and appropriate patient positioning, purely 3D-endoscopic surgery allows safe and minimally invasive resection of supra-infratentorial tumor without complications.
