Abstract
LACHICA LOPEZ, E.. Medical secret and informed consent in medical expertise. Cuad. med. forense [online]. 2002, n.27, pp.29-37. ISSN 1988-611X.
Regulation and application of both medical secret and patient's consent in the expert medical practice has important difficulties. This paper analyses the legal regulations for the medical profession, and shows the nonexistence of specific norms in the expert's field activities in what concerns these patient's two fundamental rights.
Keywords : medical secret; consent; expertise.
