About
Francesco Maneschi is a leading figure in gynecologic surgery, with a particular focus on endometriosis and the critical evaluation of clinical practices. His work is distinguished by a commitment to evidence-based medicine, most notably through the ETIC (Endometriosis Treatment Italian Club) network. In his landmark 2019 position statement, "When more is not better: 10 ‘don’ts’ in endometriosis management," Maneschi and a consortium of experts from 16 Italian academic centers issued a powerful call for de-implementation. This highly cited work (62 citations) systematically identified ten common, yet unsupported, interventions that should be abandoned, challenging the field to move beyond entrenched habits toward higher-value care. By advocating for what *not* to do, Maneschi has made a profound contribution to patient safety and resource stewardship. His research directly shapes clinical guidelines, urging surgeons to prioritize quality over quantity in endometriosis management. For students and researchers, Maneschi’s work serves as a masterclass in critical appraisal, demonstrating that the most impactful contributions often lie in questioning established dogma and championing a more thoughtful, evidence-driven approach to women’s health.
