This has become a phenomenon that has led physicians and researchers to seek different alternatives, some controversial and debatable. Among them, embryo research and the use of organs from people who had not signed an informed consent or who were declared dead according to the parameters of neuronal death, going contrary to popular belief, or other parameters for the diagnosis of death as the criterion heart. The objective of this review is to provide a point of view about the impact of certain procedures in the transplant of organs and their bioethical implications. Key words: Organ transplantation. Neuronal death. Stem cells. Bioethics. |
