Summary

This study investigates peropeative nodal upstaging during anatomical resections for non-small-cell-lung-cancer in an era of rising numbers of VATS anatomical resections. In case of comparable study groups, unchanged pretreatment staging and equal quality of pathologic examination, lymph node upstaging is a marker of surgical quality and can be used to study the quality of a new surgical technique.
