Abstract

In 2012, almost 4,500 people died in the United States while waiting for kidney transplants. In 2013, 4,100 died in the European Union while officially placed on waiting lists. To solve this problem, there are essentially two ethically acceptable solutions; but both have, in their current state, disadvantages. The first solution would be having financial incentives for living organ transfer. The second one would be adopting a model, like the Spanish or Croatian ones, which we can denominate as the «imperfect altruistic» model.
