Originally being founded by Professor Rippmann of Switzerland for the study of EPH Gestosis (preeclampsia / eclampsia), the International Congress on Pathophysiology of Pregnancy (International Meeting of Organization Gestosis (OG) ), has been held annually in Europe, the Middle East, Asia and Oceania. In the recent years, its focus has been expanded to the study of pregnancy complications and management for high-risk pregnancies, thereby greatly contributing to promote and provide better quality perinatal cares in both developed and developing countries equally.

The 46th International Congress on Pathophysiology of Pregnancy shall be held in Japan as a result of requests from many nations together with the support of the Japan Society for the Study of Hypertension in Pregnancy. We believe this forthcoming Congress greatly enhances and supports the health and welfare of both mothers and babies in all of the countries.
