Pioneering scientific production

A rich national and international output intended to form the basis of medicine.

"Endometriosis currently affects 180 million women around the world ‒ over 7 million in Brazil alone.
Between 10% and 15% of women of reproductive age may suffer from endometriosis, the primary cause of pelvic pain and
infertility among women. Our studies have shown that it takes from 7 to 12 years for the disease to be diagnosed.
My focus is to identify and treat endometriosis as early as possible so
women can avoid problems such as chronic pain and infertility, so they can enjoy good health, free of pain.
I believe a global perspective is key to achieving this balance

A national and international standard-setter in
endometriosis and women’s health, with an integrated view.

Dr. Mauricio Abrão’s life story carries advancements that have shifted the paradigms of what we know about women’s health, endometriosis, infertility and gynecologic endocrinology.
Coupled with that was his important role in raising awareness about
incorporating, into any treatment, strategies that promote health in a balanced and comprehensive manner across all stages of a woman’s life. This vision allowed new forms of clinical and surgical care to be developed. Furthermore, it allowed women to write new stories, without pain, and to become pregnant.

Today, the technology to diagnose, classify stages and treat endometriosis and infertility is undergoing amazing advances.

Dr. Mauricio Abrão is a pioneer in developing studies and techniques that have become the global standard in women’s health, such as eliminating invasive diagnosis techniques by creating markers to identify endometriosis; improving diagnostic accuracy by creating new methods for mapping endometriosis and adenomyosis through imaging
He has been successfully treating cases using the continuous advances in minimally invasive surgery; enhancing the precision of treatment with a perspective that includes therapeutic algorithms; and creating an application to classify endometriosis stages.

Frequently Asked Questions:

WHAT IS ENDOMETRIOSIS?

WHAT ORGANS DOES ENDOMETRIOSIS AFFECT?

It can affect many different tissues and organs, such as ovaries, peritoneum, uterosacral ligaments (uterus and rectum), retrocervical region (behind the uterine colon), rectovaginal septum, rectum/sigmoid colon, small intestine (terminal ileum), appendix, bladder and ureters.
