The biobank includes samples from 382 patients, who consented to donate one or more tissue sample. One patient presented with a secondary tumor during follow-up and was classified as two individual cases (HROC50). One Patient showed complete remission of a rectal carcinoma and was classified as UICC 0. Tissue acquisition failed due to small neoplasia size in 107 (25 adenomas, 72 carcinomas, and 10 metastases) cases.
