Patients with supp-SM grade 6 N0P1/N1P1 modifiers are at significantly increased risk of surgical morbidity, and could serve as a operability boundary in the selection of patients for microsurgical AVM resection. PROPHYLACTIC ANTI-REFLUX PROCEDURE IS NOT NECESSARY FOR PAEDIATRIC PATIENTS UNDERGOING LAPARO... ACH Fung, HM Hui, MKY Mok, PHY Chung and KKY Wong Department of Surgery, The University of Hong Kong, Queen Mary Hospital, Hong Kong SAR B Aim: b Laparoscopic gastrostomy is a frequently performed procedure for children requiring long-term enteral tube nutrition. B Results: b Cancer detection rate for MRI fusion biopsy (45.3%, 53/117 patients) was higher than sTPBx (32.1%, 84/262 patients, I p i = 0.013). Patients with Supp-SM grade 6 and N0P0/N1P0 subtypes ("good 6") had comparable outcomes as Supp-SM grade 5 patients ( I p i = .51), while those with N0P1/N1P1 subtypes ("bad 6") had similar outcomes to grade 7 patients ( I p i = .59).
