If it were today, would Eduardo be an Interventional Radiologist?

Abstract

This perhaps audacious title will probably be as provocative as: "If it were today, would Eduardo be a member of Benfica Club"? We speak, of course, of Prof. Dr. Eduardo Barroso, Director of the Surgery Area of ​​the University Hospital Center of Central Lisbon (CHULC), who retired last month. He is a nationally and internationally renowned surgeon, with proven experience, being a reference in the field of hepatic-bile-pancreatic surgery and transplantation. He has chaired the Portuguese Society of General Surgery and the European Surgical Association, elected by his peers. He would hardly give up his professional passion for ours, but when we admire someone we try to project into the person all the qualities or virtues that stand out as the most positive.
