Abstract

Although prenatal diagnostics undoubtedly represent a source of progress in the fight against serious genetic and infectious diseases, there are significant risks of drifting off course. It is therefore necessary to protect both the future beings, ie the embryos and the fœtuses, and their parents who are likely to undergo pressure from family, society, the medical sector and the state.
