Marco Pelosi IIDr

Marco A. Pelosi II graduated in obstetrics and gynecology from the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey Medical School where he also completed a fellowship in OB/GYN oncology. He has been in private practice since 1975, being initially certified in the field of OB/GYN in 1974 and recertified several times since then.

Dr. Pelosi, the Director of the Pelosi Medical Center in Bayonne, New Jersey, is a fellow and member of numerous medical societies including the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the American College of Surgeons, the International College of Surgeons, the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery, and the American Society of Liposuction Surgery.

Dr. Pelosi's extensive writing on topics related to his specialty includes over 165 published articles and contributions to several textbooks.  In addition to frequently lecturing at the national and international levels, he also performs live surgical demonstrations and presents videos and scientific exhibits, a number of which have earned awards: he is a four-time recipient of the Golden Laparoscope Award for World’s Best Surgical Video (American Association of Gynecologic Laparoscopists).  One of his primary interests throughout his professional career has been the development of obstetrics and gynecologic surgical instrumentation, such as the Q-Tip diagnostic device for stress urinary incontinence (developed in the early 1970's); the Pelosi uterine manipulator and laparoscopic illuminator; various devices for urogynecologic and vaginal surgery; his pioneer work with the soft vacuum extractor in vaginal and abdominal delivery and with the use of uterine absorbable staple devices for cesarean section; and a new soft, self-retaining abdominal retractor for cesarean sections. More recently, due to his interest in liposuction, he and Marco Pelosi III, MD developed new liposuction instrumentation and a liposuction operating table.
