Summary/Abstract: One of the most debated topics in the world is the legalization or non-legalization of euthanasia and medically assisted suicide, a fact that has given rise to many questions starting from extreme situations, whom both legislators and health professionals, as well as patients tried to give answers of the most diverse seemingly, but which have in view only a few attributes that are reduced to ethics, morality, religion. This analysis is therefore interdisciplinary, for the elucidation of which it is necessary that professionals of several professions express their point of view. Last but not least, we appreciate that the one who must be the center of the analysis is the patient, the one who is in a desperate and unsolved medical situation and needs this last release.
