Thirteen articles published between 2016 and 2023 were selected from PubMed, later subjected to a narrative review, and public statements from the doctors involved in this type of transplant were considered. From this, we sought to understand the discourses, consensus, and controversies that arise in the scientific field. We approached this analysis from the perspective of social studies of science and regarded scientific discourse as historical, provisional, and partial construction, influenced by economic, social, and political interests. The findings indicate the mobilization of moral arguments &#8211; not exclusively \u201ctechnical\u201d ones &#8211; in defense of the transplant and an (over)emphasis on favorable aspects of the procedure. There is also a noticeable strong biological essentialism that reinforces the idea that ideal motherhood requires the experience of pregnancy within one\u2019s own body, ensuring gestational, genetic, and legal components.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Keywords:<\/strong><br>Transplant; Uterus; Gender, Science; Reproduction<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Access the full article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scielo.br\/j\/physis\/a\/DZWYz9wc9CJksxcGM5ym3zh\/?lang=en\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reference:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>VIEIRA, Juliana Rodrigues; AZIZE, Rog\u00e9rio Luiz; NUCCI, Marina Fisher. \u201cUm transplante ef\u00eamero\u201d: an\u00e1lise de publica\u00e7\u00f5es cient\u00edficas sobre o caso brasileiro de transplante uterino.&nbsp;<em>Physis: Revista de Sa\u00fade Coletiva<\/em>, Rio de Janeiro, 35 (3), 2025.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Researcher Juliana Vieira\u00a0(CLAM\/IMS\/UERJ) and professors Rogerio Azize (CLAM\/IMS\/UERJ) and Marina Nucci (CLAM\/IMS\/UERJ) published the article \u201cUm transplante ef\u00eamero\u201d: an\u00e1lise de publica\u00e7\u00f5es cient\u00edficas sobre o caso brasileiro de transplante uterino, in Physis: Revista de Sa\u00fade Coletiva (Physis: Journal of Collective Health), a publication linked to the Hesio Cordeiro Social Medicine Institute of the Rio de Janeiro State University (IMS-UERJ).
