Abstract
Neural grafting will dramatically modify the treatment of major cerebral and medullary illnesses. This new approach has already been used in Parkinson's disease, perhaps too early according to our knowledge in that field. Ethical problems are numerous with brain grafting but one may hope in next future a better understanding of the mechanisms involved in these procedures and a solution to most of ethical objections to perform that treatment.
