Innovative surgery: the ethical challenges.
Journal of Medical Ethics 2012 January
Innovative surgery raises four kinds of ethical challenges: potential harms to patients; compromised informed consent; unfair allocation of healthcare resources; and conflicts of interest. Lack of adequate data on innovations and lack of regulatory oversight contribute to these ethical challenges.

It is suggested that some ethical issues will be more resistant to resolution than others, owing to special features of both surgery and innovation.
