Patients with pT3a upstaging following PN experience a significantly reduced RFS and CSS when compared to pT1 disease.

LSG technique is not uniform. Video analysis identified variation in (1) time to complete each step of the procedure, (2) hiatal hernia repair technique, (3) stapling technique, and (4) post-transection staple line management. Future efforts linking video analysis with clinical outcomes can provide objective evidence to support best practices.

Identification of CVS criteria was not uniform with the least amount of agreement on adequate hepatocystic and cystic plate dissection. Individual variation also exists between identification of CVS criteria and likelihood to divide structures. Video-based assessments that include intraoperative decision-making can help assess individual perceptions of safe practices without the risk of harm to the patient.
