Colposcopy, risk surgery? Marrini questions the mayor

FOLLONICA – "Mayor of Follonica Andrea Benini is aware of the possible closure of colposcopy surgery at Sant? Andrea di Mbada Marittima hospital?" It is one of the most questions asked by the adviser of Forza Italia Sandro Marrini

"The health care company – according to the question of Marrini – implements a policy of reducing the functions and services of peripheral hospitals, including that from Mbada Marittima. After recent news of the likely limitation of mbadetane surgery only to day surgery, we also learned the likely closure at the end of the year for colposcopy. The examination, performed by many women to check for the presence of the papilloma virus (HPV), is an integral part of cervical cancer prevention screening and can only be performed in structures hospitals of Mbada Marittima and Grosseto. With the closing of the Sant Andrea clinic, followed by a knowledgeable and helpful staff for years, all women living in the Ore Mountains region will have to travel to the provincial capital to perform this check. This will certainly involve longer waiting times because, from next year, if this information is confirmed, there will only remain in Grosseto province a colposcopy clinic that will meet the needs of the female population of Maremma. The battle that Forza Italia is waging to secure the right to health of the population of Grosseto began years ago. We have long argued that peripheral hospitals must necessarily maintain their functions, it is unthinkable to move any service in the grossetana structure and demonstrate what we say there are long waiting lists that the citizens are forced to suffer to receive benefits from the health company. Follonica cashes the decisions of the ASL summits without ever intervening and opposing an organization that affects the citizens of the Gulf.
