    Abstract:
    This article considers legal aspects of the informed consent. The focus is placed on the legal basis of the doctor's duty to inform and the extent of information, the determination of which is one of the most difficult problems in practice. Finally, the importance of the duty to inform as an instrument for the avoidance of conflict and for the stabilization of the doctor-patient relationship will be discussed.
