The aim of the article is to analyse Polish regulations considering the legal situation of the stillborn child. The source of the protection could be derived from the constitutional right to live – where the prenatal development is included – and the dignity of the person which does not expire after death. Every stillborn child must be buried, regardless the duration of pregnancy. This duty concerns also children whose stillbirth was caused by the abortion treatment. Furthermore the procedure the hospital is obliged to carry in case of the stillbirth is shown. According to the European Court of Human Rights the legislation considering stillborn children should be clear and non-violating the rights of the relatives. In the summary the author points out legislative errors and shows the solutions that possibly could be introduced.

In spite of a long-lasting criticism by several international human rights bodies, the Czech Republic is the last EU member state which still perform therapeutic surgical castration of sex offenders and men suffering from certain paraphilias. While critics consider the practice medically unnecessary and inhuman, proponents claim that therapeutic surgical castration offers the last hope to patients in whom other treatment options failed. This paper analyses the question of whether and under what circumstances can surgical castration be considered permissible. After that, the legal regulation in the Czech Republic and the relevant international criticism are dealt with. The identified criteria of permissibility are then applied to the Czech regulation and practice of castration.

The study is an insight into the legal regulation of mandatory premarital health examinations in chosen European countries (Germany, France, Hungary) in the 20th century, and in the case of France even in the 21st century. There were no obligatory premarital health checkups in Slovakia (1939–1945) and Czechoslovakia (1918–1938, 1945–1989). However, as the reader can notice, the relevant expert discussion was on a relatively high level.
