Abstract
OLIVEIRA NAVES, Bruno Torquato de and FREIRE DE SA, Maria de Fátima. Bioethics and legal overview of assisted human reproduction in Brazil. Rev. Bioética y Derecho [online]. 2015, n.34, pp.64-80. ISSN 1886-5887. https://dx.doi.org/10.1344/rbd2015.34.12067.
The regulatory, ethical and legal, of assisted human reproduction occurs in Brazil for a few instruments, especially the Resolution of the Federal Council of Medicine n. 2013, April 16, 2013, which revoked the Resolution 1957/2010 and recognized the possibility of homosexual couples when using the techniques. The discussions raised by this regulation are many, including as to the legal consequences of assisted reproduction made after the death of a parent. Concerning this specific situation, there was a trial in which the deceased father had not expressly permitted the use of their semen after his death.
