Visor Flap-Assisted Segmental Mandibulectomy and Immediate Free Fibula Reconstruction for Extensive Plexiform Ameloblastoma of the Anterior Mandible: A Case Report.

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
Ameloblastoma is a benign but locally aggressive odontogenic tumour commonly affecting the mandible. This case report describes the surgical management of mandibular ameloblastoma in a 65-year-old male with a gradually enlarging anterior mandibular swelling for two years. Clinical and radiological evaluation revealed an expansile lesion in the symphyseal region, and histopathology confirmed plexiform ameloblastoma. Considering the lesion's extent, segmental mandibulectomy was performed using a visor flap and pull-through approach. Immediate reconstruction was achieved with a pre-bent 2.5-mm titanium reconstruction plate and a free fibular flap with microvascular anastomosis. Postoperative recovery was satisfactory, restoring mandibular continuity, function, and facial aesthetics.
