The fragile heart is a British miniseries, released in 1996. Since this medical drama offers, among others, a variety of possibilities for debate on deontological and attitudinal features for physicians in particular and professionals in health area in general is more than recommended appreciating the various readings it allows. The aim of this paper is to address it and present some of those possibilities.

Keywords : heart; fragile; medicine; deontology; attitudes.
