Abstract
Significance for public healthContinual scientific progress is making new applications available, with significant medical, ethical, legal and social implications, not only for the persons directly concerned. In the area of medically assisted procreation, the use of heterologous techniques is able to overcome problems of sterility or infertility for those requesting access to methods of this kind. On the other hand, legislation is required to regulate the many correlated issues, also with regard to other parties such as ova or sperm donors and the offspring resulting from the use of these techniques: the protection of the health of the offspring; the management of laboratory results obtained during donor selection tests; the protection of confidentiality; the donor-child traceability; the number of donations; and individuals’ rights to be fully informed about their biological origins are just some of the questions confirming that the implications of new procreation techniques are not restricted merely to the couples who access them.
