BRASILIA (AFP) - Brazil's Supreme Court on Thursday declared abortion legal in cases of foetuses without brains, a decision that ends a debate started eight years ago amid protests from religious groups.

By a vote of 8-to-2, the Supreme Court said forcing women to maintain their pregnancies when their foetuses have been diagnosed with anencephaly creates a risk to their physical and psychological health.Under current Brazilian law, abortion is legal only in cases of rape or when a mother's life is threatened by a pregnancy.'Giving birth means giving life, not death,' said Judge Ayres Britto.​

Feuillet and his colleagues describe the case of this patient in The Lancet. He is a married father of two children, and works as a civil servant.

You can't call that a normal life.
