Abstract/OtherAbstract:
According to the German Embryo Protection Act, PGD has been banned in Germany since 1990; one reason is the legislature's avoiding to insert a revision clause regarding medical advance into the law. The ruling of the German Federal Court of Justice of July 2010 shows the problems resulting out of this approach and declares PGD to be permitted in certain cases. The article discusses the necessity for, as well as the problems of, an interdisciplinary dialogue in the field of reproductive medicine.
