Mr. Andrea Bonifacio protected effectively the rights to health and gender identity – protected by the Constitution and the European Convention on Human Rights – obtaining for his client a sentence of rectification of sex according to Law 164/82 and Legislative Decree 150/2011, without surgical intervention on anatomical sexual characters.
