This article synthesizes an explanatory case study related to the Suruwahá people and "indigenous infanticide," widely associated in Brazil as a cultural practice of this native community. To conduct the case study, the following research question was formulated: how can bioethics contribute to the debate on "indigenous infanticide" among the Suruwahá community? The research hypothesis suggests that "indigenous infanticide" is also a political issue crossed by racism and other structural problems, revealing the interest of external actors committed to the mortification of indigenous peoples. The debate related to the topic is broad and can be addressed by these different branches of bioethics, as analyses based on the Latin American reality can be positive, especially because "indigenous infanticide" is a political issue and highlights structural problems.
