Based on the analysis of Ukrainian legislation and scientific works of Ukrainian scientists, the author offers own vision of the issue related to the subject matter of the analysed crime, namely: the author considers the maximum permissible terms of transportation and optimal storage periods for such organs as heart, kidneys, liver, left and right lobes of the liver, lung, and homograft.
