No se registraron complicaciones inusuales en el procedimiento ni en lo referente a la salud de la madre. Tres años antes, ensayos clínicos suecos señalan el nacimiento de dos infantes de sexo masculino provenientes de úteros extraídos de donantes vivas, vinculados a las madres. La ciencia había logrado curar el factor de infertilidad uterino absoluto (AUFI por sus siglas en inglés), en mujeres con esta condición. Es importante que, si bien algunos ajustes en el procedimiento dominarán el desarrollo futuro, especialmente en los aspectos clínicos, no debemos olvidar las consideraciones éticas. Por lo anterior, esta revisión documental se centra en cómo se ven los trasplantes de útero de donantes fallecidas dentro de los datos disponibles en tres contextos principales: la antropología del ser humano, la medicina y la sociología, con énfasis en ciertas construcciones culturales de la sociedad liberal moderna. Subyacente al diagnóstico está el hecho de que el útero es un órgano no vital en la fisiología humana, y los trasplantes de útero de donantes fallecidas (DD UTX por sus siglas en inglés) plantean nuevos desafíos en la ética. En esta revisión se presentan los sesgos observados en los datos, las limitaciones de un procedimiento de menos de diez años y las conclusiones a las que llegamos.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract Reproductive technology reached a new high in 2017 with the birth of a baby girl using the uterus from a deceased donor. There were no unusual complications recorded with the procedure or with the health of the mother. Three years earlier, in Swedish trials, two boys were born from uteri taken from live donors, relatives of the mothers. Science had managed to cure absolute uterine factor fertility AUFI, in women so afflicted. While some fine tuning in procedure will dominate future development, especially the clinical aspects, we must not forget the ethical considerations. This documentary review therefore focuses on how deceased donor uterus transplantations are viewed within the available data in three contexts: the anthropology of the human, in medicine, and in sociology with emphasis on certain cultural constructs of modern liberal society. Underlying the diagnosis is the fact that the uterus is a non-vital organ in human physiology, and dead donor uterus transplantations or DD UTX raise new challenges in ethics. The biases observed in the data, the limitations; a procedure less than ten years old, and the conclusions we arrived at, are presented in this review.]]></p></abstract>
