Abstract
There are unique and universal aspects of the legal system as in the juridical relationship between medical agents and patients. Those aspects which emerge with the originality that crosses several disciplines are dignity, privacy and autonomy (vg: informed consent and, radically, refusal or revocation of consent). Throughout this text I’ll bring to those matters, not only some ideas about care and solidarity, but also some aspects of principles such as respect and recognition, and among the most, pointing contributions to Law Medicine as an autonomous model of rules, in order to interconnect the existing legal puzzle.References
