ABSTRACT
Selection of candidates to facial allotransplant is a complex process that involves a multidisciplinary specialist’s team in charge of evaluating both the medical and legal aspects. In our country this issue involves a signed consent by the patient, properly filled out and based on the acting legislation, the bioethics and Transplant Committees acceptance; medical licenses issued by COFEPRIS to obtain tissues and organs. Among the medical aspects that influence the selection of a candidate for facial allograft are: main pathology, patient’s motivation and adequate understanding of the procedure; socioeconomic conditions in order to secure the survival of the graft, therapeutic adherence to the immunosuppressive drugs, and acceptance of a new image.
