Abstract: This research presents the background of medical malpractice law, the tort of negligence with fault, tor of negligence without fault and wrongdoer’s in Vietnam in comparison with medical malpractice laws of some European countries. Vietnamese medical malpractice law has some similarities and noticeable differences to the other European countries. In particular, Vietnam has faced the lack of very important regulations in accurately determining the misconduct of medical practitioner such as standard of care, loss of chance, and strict liability. We propose future directions of possible amendments in the Vietnamese medical malpractice law.
