Abstract

EDITOR—Obtaining informed consent for storing tissue is problematic. Which normal clinical practices need written consent and what material constitutes tissue? In how much detail should a practitioner obtain consent for a blood sample taken for a full blood count or for biochemical analysis, and what information can or should be given about the ultimate fate of samples such as tumours removed at surgery?
