What is on this page, and what is not
- Included: pieces explaining a condition, occasions when reporters asked for a specialist opinion, and coverage of the directorship of the Garrahan Hospital.
- Not included: pieces in which Dr. Pirozzo was the surgeon of an identifiable patient. Argentina's Ley 17.132 and this site's own disclaimer advise against it, and publicising whom one has operated on is poor form besides.
- Every link was opened and checked. If one stops working, write to [email protected].
A note about press articles
A piece written for a general readership is simplified on purpose. Nothing here replaces a consultation: if any of this applies to you or to someone close to you, the right step is to be examined by a doctor.
