The baby born as a result of the surgery was named "Argentina".[14] In 1930, she served as the Argentine delegate for the VII Medical Congress of Latin America held in Mexico[5] and presided over the first general session. She presented three papers; one addressed uterine tumors and the other two were about syphilis.[14] She was also the delegate for the 2nd Congress of the Pan-American Medical Association in Panama. Between 1930 and 1932 she returned to the United States for additional studies[5][14] which focused on colibacillosis, septicemia, puerperal infections, investigating whether vaccines could be developed to prevent the development of conditions resulting from childbirth or miscarriage.[18]
