Ethics has been defined as a group of moral principles or set of values governing the behavior of an individual or profession. Clinical ethics has been defined as, “the identification, analysis and resolution of moral problems that arise in the care of a particular patient”. Another definition is “the identification of morally correct actions and the resolution of ethical dilemmas in medical decision-making, through the application of moral concepts and rules to medical situations”. There are a number of ethical issues which confront medical practitioners in their profession. Many of these are common to all physicians and are well known. They include areas like confidentiality, informed consent, relationship with colleagues, advertisements, media publicity, professional charges, commissions, issuing of medical certificates and many others. A few situations which are especially relevant to neurosurgical practice and which often confront the clinician in day-to-day management of cases will be presented in this chapter.
