About
Dr. F. Forlani is a leading expert in reproductive medicine and minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, with a particular focus on managing complex and high-risk pregnancies. Her most impactful work addresses the critical challenge of hemorrhage control during the treatment of Cesarean scar and cervical pregnancies. In her landmark 2014 study, cited over 60 times, Dr. Forlani pioneered the use of a Foley balloon catheter as a prophylactic and therapeutic tool to prevent or manage severe bleeding in these delicate procedures. This innovative, low-cost technique has provided clinicians with a practical, life-saving intervention, significantly improving patient safety and outcomes in a high-stakes area of reproductive care. By demonstrating the efficacy of this simple mechanical approach, her research has become a cornerstone reference for gynecologists and interventional radiologists alike, establishing her as a key contributor to safer surgical practices for ectopic and scar pregnancies. Her work continues to influence clinical guidelines and empower practitioners to manage these challenging conditions with greater confidence.
