Research Abstract	I examined the significance of self-responsibility of the victim (a patient) in the medico criminal law mainly on problems of the accountability of the doctor and the effectiveness of the consent of the patient. In recent years the problem of the hypothetic agreement attracts attention in Germany, but this principle of law is logically a problem and adoption seems to be difficult in our country which is different a law state. In addition, I examined the significance of the self-determination of the victim in euthanasia and the gene study and reaffirmed importance of the intention of the victim in this field.
