Colonic Perineurioma’s Malignant Proximity to Serrated Colonic Polyps

Discouraging colonic polyps.

Colonic serrated pathway lesions: Molecular and histologic changes in serrated colonic proliferations (Review).

Serrated polyps of the intestinal tract, specifically those within the colon, represent a wide variety of benign and neoplastic changes. Diagnostic entities include benign hyperplastic changes in prolapse, hyperplastic polyps (HPs), serrated adenomas (SAs) and carcinomas with serrated morphology. Recent developments in molecular pathology have confirmed the existence of additional neoplastic gr...

Gastric Proteins MUC5AC and TFF1 as Potential Diagnostic Markers of Colonic Sessile Serrated Adenomas/Polyps

Objectives A subset of colon cancers originates from sessile serrated adenomas/polyps (SSA/Ps). Our goal was to identify markers for SSA/Ps that could aid in distinguishing them from hyperplastic polyps (HPs). Methods We performed immunostaining for gastric proteins MUC5AC and TFF1 in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples of HPs (n = 47), SSA/Ps (n = 37), and normal colon (n = 30)....

Investigating The Frequency of Serrated Polyps/Adenomas and Their Subtypes in Colonic Polyp Samples

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to determine the frequency of Serrated polyps of colonic polyps samples in Hazrat_e Rasoul_e Akram Hospital over ten years. MATERIALS The target group in this study was patients with colonic polyps in Hazrat_e Rasoul_e Akram Hospital. Pathologic evaluation of these patients was done. Serrated polyps, by location, gender, age and type of polyps were div...

Endoscopic resection of colonic polyps – A review

Endoscopic polypectomy has become standard care for the treatment of colonic polyps. While about 90% of polyps are small in size and easy to resect, a small percentage of polyps are of large size (>2 cm) and broad base and endoscopic resection is a real challenge for the endoscopist. An appropriate technique for safe removal of these large colorectal polyps has been developed and includes submu...
