It is estimated that more than 4.5 million couples experience infertility each year, and more than 4 million babies have been born using IVF since 1978. However, assisted reproductive technologies continue to raise many medical, social, ethical, political and religious questions, often leading to controversial and sometimes inaccurate opinions about the outcomes of pregnancies resulting from these techniques. This is the first book dedicated to pregnancies arising from assisted reproductive technologies (ART). Chapters cover the most important management issues, from early pregnancy to outcome of children resulting from ART, including gynaecological, genetic and obstetric complications. Each chapter is written and edited by leading experts in the field of human reproduction. A timely, practical and evidence-based guide to the management of ART pregnancies, based on 30 years of clinical experience, this is essential reading for reproductive and maternal-fetal specialists as well as general obstetricians and gynaecologists.

Reproductive donation is the most contentious area of assisted reproduction. Even within Europe there are wide variations in what is permitted in each country. This multidisciplinary book takes a fresh look at the practices of egg, sperm and embryo donation and surrogacy, bringing together ethical analysis and empirical research. New evidence is offered on aspects of assisted reproduction and the families these create, including non-traditional types. One of the key issues addressed is should children be told of their donor origin? If they do learn the identity of their donor, what kinds of relationships may be forged between families, the donor and other donor sibling families? Should donation involve a gift relationship? Is intra-familial donation too close for comfort? How should we understand the growing trend for 'reproductive tourism'? This lively and informed discussion offers new insights into reproductive donation and the resulting donor families.

La maîtrise de la vie appartient-elle à Dieu, à l'État, au législateur, aux magistrats, aux médecins, à l'individu lui-même, et, lorsqu'il s'agit de donner la vie à un enfant, aux futurs parents ? Le droit qui prescrit des règles applicables à tous peut-il se confondre avec l'éthique qui est une réponse individuelle et exigeante à une situation donnée ? Peut-il priver des hommes et des femmes de la liberté de procréer ou d'aider à la procréation ? Le droit peut-il dicter à la médecine les pratiques à suivre ou à proscrire et imposer aux médecins des règles contraires à la déontologie ? Peut-on à la fois dénoncer l'eugénisme, la supposée « recherche de l'enfant parfait » et imposer des critères pour les donneurs et les futurs parents afin de ne retenir que « les parents parfaits » et d'instaurer un « permis de procréer » ? Peut-on définir légalement les « bonnes » familles et les familles « nuisibles » à l'enfant : familles monoparentales, couples homosexuels ? Peut-on affirmer que le mariage est le garant de parents au-dessus de tout soupçon ? Les procréations médicalement assistées soulèvent des débats passionnés et leur appréhension par le droit est souvent troublée par les enjeux politiques, sociétaux, religieux qu'elles sous-tendent. L'association Louis Chatin, sous l'impulsion de Lucette Khaïat et Cécile Marchal, a lancé une recherche sur ce thème et réuni les personnalités les plus éminentes dans leur discipline, choisies en raison de leur contact direct avec la réalité des faits, de leur réflexion approfondie et de leur rigueur scientifique.
