The Impact of Institutional Volume of Endoscopic Resection on Early‐Stage Gastric Cancer Outcomes
ER for EGC is rapidly expanding across US institutions at all volume levels. ER achieves comparable oncological outcomes and survival independent of ER volume when guideline-concordant criteria are met, suggesting centralization may be unnecessary for EGC. The guideline discordant care rate of ~24% across all institutions highlights the need for adherence to ER criteria for EGC.
