Résumé

Clinical guidelines are created to reduce variation in care practices, with the goal of improving patient outcomes. There is currently no international consensus on best practices for pulmonary resection. Our aim was to evaluate variation in treatment patterns and outcomes for pulmonary resection by comparing The Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) and the European Society of Thoracic Surgery (ESTS) general thoracic surgery databases (GTSDs).
