Transanal TME Video Quality on YouTube Versus WebSurg and the Development of a Procedure-Specific TaTME StepScore: A Cross-Sectional Validation Study
Popular TaTME videos on YouTube and WebSurg appear similar in terms of educational/reporting quality. The procedure-specific StepScore is consistent with general quality measures and can predict LAP-VEGaS ≥ 11 adequacy with a practical ≥15 point target. Using StepScore for video assessment and as a step-by-step instructional checklist may contribute to improving TaTME training standards.
