About
Antonio Maiorana is a leading figure in gynecologic surgery and endometriosis management, whose work has fundamentally shaped clinical practice in Italy and beyond. His research centers on evidence-based surgical optimization, with a particular focus on challenging the overuse of invasive interventions in endometriosis care. Maiorana’s most impactful contribution is the landmark 2019 ETIC position statement, “When more is not better: 10 ‘don’ts’ in endometriosis management,” which has garnered 62 citations and serves as a critical counterpoint to aggressive treatment paradigms. In this work, he led a network of experts from 16 Italian academic departments to systematically identify ten procedures and practices that should be de-implemented, providing strong, evidence-based recommendations that have reshaped clinical guidelines. Beyond this, Maiorana has been instrumental in advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques and promoting multidisciplinary care models. His influence is reflected in the widespread adoption of his “less is more” philosophy, which prioritizes patient quality of life over surgical radicalism. For students and researchers, Maiorana exemplifies how rigorous evidence synthesis can directly transform clinical decision-making, making him a pivotal voice in modern gynecologic practice.
