Abstract
- Textbook outcome (TBO) has been proposed as a composite measure of quality in esophagogastric surgery, and achieving a TBO has been associated with improved overall survival (OS). The Dutch Upper Gastrointestinal Cancer Audit group determined their TBO rate for gastrectomy to be 32.1%, using 10 parameters. Our study aimed to assess the TBO rate in patients who had a gastrectomy for cancer in an Australian Upper GI unit, allowing for comparisons with international specialist centers.
