Résumé

Registering details of thoracic surgical activity has a long tradition in Hungary. Implemented first as a procedure based register, characteristics of the treatment, complications and outcomes has been noted for the last three decades. Although the limitations of the used database hindered the scientific analysis in the dataset and restricted the possibility of benchmarking. The European Society of Thoracic Surgeons (ESTS) database is offering a specialty-specific, procedure-specific, web-based electronic database for data contribution enabling international comparisons. Our aim was to accommodate and implement the ESTS database as the new Hungarian national thoracic surgical registry.
