Perirenal Hematoma and Graft Malposition Requiring Surgical Repositioning After Transplant Tourism: A Case Report.
Article in IJU case reports, 2026. 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
Introduction: Patients returning after transplant tourism often have incomplete perioperative information, complicating postoperative management and clinical decision-making. Case Presentation: A 72-year-old Japanese man with end-stage kidney disease secondary to diabetic nephropathy underwent living-donor kidney transplantation abroad. After returning to Japan, he developed decreased urine output and lower back pain. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed the transplanted kidney in the subcutaneous tissue of the right lower abdomen, with perirenal gas/fluid collection and a partially non-enhancing lesion in the renal parenchyma. Because bowel injury could not be excluded, exploratory laparotomy was performed. Intraoperatively, the graft was identified in the subcutaneous layer with surrounding hematoma and was repositioned into the subfascial iliac fossa. Postoperatively, graft function remained stable without pathological abnormalities. Conclusion: Transplant tourism may involve substantial deviation from standard surgical practice and poses significant clinical and ethical challenges for physicians.
