title: [Organ transplantation, development and perspectives of the legal status].
abstract: The FRG has no transplantation law as most other European countries do. A model of agreement is practised which is derived from fundamental principles, i.e., a personal right outlasting death and the agreement of the next of kin for organ removal. The paper favours a legal regulation that resolves the difference between a model of presumed consent on the hand and a model of agreement on the other hand, and advocates informing the next of kin, who can then object as representatives of the deceased.
