Today, Marcelino Champagnat Hospital has a well-structured teaching and research program related to the treatment of peritoneal tumors.
Through its teaching program, the hospital provides technical support to other teams across Brazil, enabling other centers to develop their peritoneal surgery programs in their regions.
Patients treated by
the Peritoneal Oncology Group at Marcelino are invited to participate in research projects. In the future, this research may help other patients receive even more effective treatment. The hospital's research program is one of
the most active and has the highest scientific output on peritoneal tumors in Latin America.
