  • No organ shall be removed from the remains of a person who has not died from disease or is suspected not to have died from disease until the corpse has legally undergone a postmortem examination and further examination is deemed unnecessary. (gov.tw)
  • However, if the non-disease cause of death is not related to the organ or organs to be removed as determined by the attending physician, the organ/organs may still be removed by the prosecutor's and the next of kin's written consent if completion of the postmortem examination may result in missing the best time for removing the organ/organs.
