Resumo
The current work presents a general overview on the Directive 2010/45/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 July 2010, on standards of quality and safety of human organs intended for transplantation, which has contributed indirectly to combating organ trafficking through the establishment of competent authorities, the authorisation of transplantation centres, and the establishment of conditions of procurement and systems of traceability. Aspects such as the risk-benefit ratio, pretransplant evaluation of potential donors, altruism as an essential principle, or consent to donation are analysed, explaining the need of common standards at Union level.
