[Quality assurance from the viewpoint of the surgeon].
The problem of global standardization, clinical documentation, and confidentiality of methods in quality control are discussed. It is concluded that conventional methods of quality assurance should be further developed in order to avoid investments into administration tools that have not yet proved any effectiveness worldwide. Future developments should be orientated to achieve benefits for the patient and to promote surgical excellence.
