Abstract
Is it ethical to aggressively treat and resuscitate a patient with a terminal disease such as metastatic cancer, contrary to expressed wishes of the patient and family? Does the situation change a few days after the operation if the patient had a major organ failure and voluntarily consented to surgery? Does it matter whether the medical care is free or paid for?
