Abstract:
Who wants Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD), who rejects it? The implications resulting from biological facts and legal regulations are addressed here. It is discussed under which conditions the restrictions of the Embryo Protection Act (Embryonenschutzgesetz, EschG) should be relaxed in order to be able to perform assisted reproduction technologies in Germany under international quality standards and also PGD in cases of stringent medical-genetic conditions.
