Summary/Abstract: In recent years, the appearance of modern medicine has changed significantly under the influence of revolutionary technologies that provide new methods and means for prevention and treatment of patients. An example of this positive trend is the increasingly widespread use of 3D bioprinting in medicine. Representatives of the European Union (EU), member states and science are increasingly discussing the contributions of innovative technology, which could undoubtedly improve the quality of life of patients. Simultaneously with these contributions, however, all subjects should pay particular attention to the numerous issues that arise in the introduction and use of 3D bioprinting in this sensitive area concerning the most important public goods: human life and health.
