title: [Patients' rights concerning their biological samples: different legal opinions].
abstract: In these pages, my wish is to highlight the legislative lagoon in our juridical frame related to the storage and use from the biological sample extracted from the patient (source subject) in an assistance process and the rights he has over it. This situation has led us to have different judgements everytime that a case like this has been judged.
