Ethical Issues in Transplantation

Abstract

Nicholas Tonti-Filippini

Many people make the generous decision to donate organs and tissue after death and, much more rarely, some make the heroic decision to donate an organ or tissue while alive. Others suffer major organ failure and make a decision to receive an organ or tissue. Some choose to be involved in medical practice or medical research involving the use of donated organs and tissues.
