SALAS VALDIVIA, César et al. Embryo Adoption: Situation of the Ethical-Legal Issue in Peru. pers.bioét. [online]. 2022, vol.26, n.2, e2627.  Epub 06-Fev-2023. ISSN 0123-3122.  https://doi.org/10.5294/pebi.2022.26.2.7.

The assisted reproduction technique brings with it several surplus embryos. A review of the situation of these embryos in Peru is proposed from biological, ethical, and legal perspectives. We delve into the Peruvian legal system regarding the lack of protection of these embryos and contrast it with a possible solution: embryonic adoption. The uncertainty of the situation of these embryos is verified, concluding that the practice of embryonic adoption is illegitimate, for it constitutes a violation of the dignity and rights-holder condition of the remaining embryos.
