Abstract
The goal of the ISGPF, clearly stated in the title of the article, was to define the complication and to grade its severity but not to provide any prognostic value. Indeed, the data necessary for the grading system cannot be analyzed before one of the events occur or at the end of the course of patient care and therefore, by definition, cannot be of any predictive value. What has to be done now is to analyze the data of several centers, expert and not so expert, to determine the independent predictive factors and then validate the results in another independent population, prospectively.What has to be done now is to analyze the data of several centers, expert and not so expert, to determine the independent predictive factors and then validate the results in another independent population, prospectively.
