The scientific technical advances have been improving to gigantic steps the prognosis of many diseases which up to now was seen as incurables or no viable, so that it forces to assume new ethical and moral approach on the attention of the new born with malformations. For any team of neonatology’s the new born with malformations are an ethical dilemma, particularly those cases with rough malformations compatibles with the life or bearers of some deformities, since parents will suffer knowing that the child they were expecting is not normal. The basic principles of the bioethics: autonomy, benefaction and justice often there difficult to determine on these patients and to make a decision there is need to take into account the judgment of the committees of ethics of each institution, organ whose labour is to advise basing on resolutions sustained on their own experience of the centre and own characteristics of each case.
