摘要
“不当出生”（Wrongful Birth）是美国侵权法上的概念，主要是指因医生的过失未诊断出胎儿的潜在出生缺陷或未对其父母尽合理告知义务而导致残障孩子出生这一事实。针对这一事实由残障儿父母提起的诉讼就是“不当出生”之诉。“不当出生”之诉最开始出现于２０世纪６０年代的美国，随着时代的发展和医学的进步，“不当出生”之诉也开始在其他国家和地区出现。由于各个国家法律传统的不同，该案件在世界范围内存在广泛争议，争议的焦点在于：“不当出生”之诉的请求权基础、请求权主体以及相关责任人的赔偿范围。在我国，由于立法层面没有相应参照，法院对于此类案件的判决还没有形成统一观点，有的法院没有支持原告方的诉讼请求；支持原告方诉讼请求的判决中，存在该案请求权基础是侵权责任还是违约责任之分歧，判决结果也各不相同。因此，对此类案件焦点问题的研究有着重要意义。本文正文分四个部分：
第一部分“不当出生”之诉的概述，在分析了与之相似的概念后，介绍了“不当出生”之诉的发展历程；
第二部分从比较法的角度分析了“不当出生”之诉的请求权基础，并由此得出笔者的观点：原告方的请求权基础应当是违约责任；
第三部分从请求权主体的界定和赔偿范围两个方面分析了“不当出生”之诉中被告人民事赔偿责任的承担。
