[Transplantation. Various ethical considerations].
The past thirty years have witnessed the evolution of organ transplantation to a routine treatment option for selected patients with end-stage kidney, heart, lung or liver failure. The use of organs, whether from the living or from the deceased, raises ethical issues. What lengths should be gone to in inducing healthy people to donate organs? How far should a physician go to persuade families to donate organs from their newly deceased relative for the purpose of transplantation?
