Cui prodest servāre? Due ipotesi di destinazione per gli embrioni crioconservati

2022

The essay analyses the general ban for the donation of embryos placed into cryopreservation, stated by the Italian legislation n. 40/2004. Such a prevision causes a sine die conservation not only for embryos suitable for implantation, but also for those affected by genetic defects or diseases. The essay points out that donating both types of embryos, respectively, to adoption or to scientific fertility research preserves the dignity of the cells in storage, as a will supported by the consent of both gametes’ providers to the ultimate scope of solidarity.
