In this regard, he explained that in addition to the two organizing institutions, the event is sponsored “by many official institutions and municipal, regional and national hospitals.” It will be attended by more than 40 speakers from our country and from countries such as the United States, Mexico, Uruguay and Paraguay.

The doctor added, “In the organization we have colleagues from our region, including the city of Villa Constitution. “For us, this is a very strong commitment.” In addition, he estimated that regarding maternal-fetal medicine “it will be one of the most important events in the country on this topic.” Registration is open and can be done through the page www.medigen.com.ar.

New specialty

Regarding the characteristics of maternal-fetal medicine, he explained that “a few decades ago – not long – the fetus constituted a patient. Until recently, obstetrics did not consider the fetus as a patient, but was devoted only to the care and attention of the mother, the pregnant woman, but since that combination, thanks to the very important contribution of technology, especially ultrasound and genetics, “a specific field of development emerges in obstetrics in which It aims to implement prevention, diagnosis and treatment strategies for a series of conditions that affect pregnancy and endanger the health of the mother, the fetus, or both.”

Multidisciplinary work

He also specified that it is a multidisciplinary subspecialty “in which geneticists, neonatologists, and pediatric surgeons participate, and among the surgeons there are different specialties such as urological surgeons, neurosurgeons, and others.” In addition to the development of what is fetal surgery, which is a topic that will be discussed with great force in this symposium, and which seems to many to be a kind of fantasy, as it is practiced in our country and in many centers in our country.”

For this reason, the symposium aims to “begin the development of laparoscopic fetal surgery in our region, where a laser or laparoscopic surgery is performed on the fetus, for various deformities or problems that it may suffer from.” We want to transfer all this technological development to the doctors of our region so that they are updated and because this is what our residents deserve.
