Abstract
Objective: Given this, it is of great importance that professionals who perform this procedure have clinical and legal knowledge on the subject. Therefore, this review aimed to carry out an analytical research on the clinical and legal aspects of legal abortion in the context of medicine. Methods: This is an analytical, documentary study, of the integrative literature review type, the search was carried out in the SCIELO, LILACS, BDENF and PUBMED databases. Results: 10 studies were selected, which addressed the clinical and legal perspectives of legal abortion in Brazil. Studies have shown that this theme is still surrounded by stigmas, and that many professionals do not have sufficient knowledge of the legislation. In addition, another issue raised in the studies is that many women who suffer rape and become pregnant are discredited by professionals, needing to present a document that proves this fact.
