Summary/Abstract: This article synthetically presents the protection of human autonomy under certain guarantees of freedom. The considerations undertaken by the author focus primarily on determining what freedom is. Then, the issue of the protection of human autonomy is analysed from the perspective of the current legislative solutions guaranteeing the protection of freedom, in particular constitutional provisions, civil law provisions, and also some of the provisions regulating legal and medical relations. The purpose of this article is to present, on the one hand, the relationship between freedom and autonomy, and on the other, to determine whether the current regulations guarantee adequate protection of autonomy within the framework of guarantees concerning freedom.
