  2. Sessile serrated lesion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sessile_serrated_lesion

    A sessile serrated lesion (SSL) is a premalignant flat (or sessile) lesion of the colon, predominantly seen in the cecum and ascending colon. SSLs are thought to lead to colorectal cancer through the (alternate) serrated pathway. [1] [2] This differs from most colorectal cancer, which arises from mutations starting with inactivation of the APC ...

  3. Serrated polyposis syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serrated_polyposis_syndrome

    Sessile serrated polyps, as seen during endoscopy or colonoscopy, are flat (rather than raised) and are easily overlooked. Serrated lesions range in size from small (<5 mm) to large, and often have a "mucous cap" overlying the polyp. Serrated lesions are frequently located on the folds of the colon (haustral folds).

  4. Colorectal adenoma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colorectal_adenoma

    Micrograph of a sessile serrated adenoma. H&E stain. Sessile serrated adenomas are characterized by (1) basal dilation of the crypts, (2) basal crypt serration, (3) crypts that run horizontal to the basement membrane (horizontal crypts), and (4) crypt branching. The most common of these features is basal dilation of the crypts.

  5. Colorectal polyp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colorectal_polyp

    Neoplastic polyps of the bowel are often benign hence called adenomas. An adenoma is a tumor of glandular tissue, that has not (yet) gained the properties of cancer. [citation needed] The common adenomas of the colon (colorectal adenoma) are the tubular, tubulovillous, villous, and sessile serrated (SSA). [18]

  6. Polyp (medicine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyp_(medicine)

    A polyp is an abnormal growth of tissue projecting from a mucous membrane. If it is attached to the surface by a narrow elongated stalk, it is said to be pedunculated; if it is attached without a stalk, it is said to be sessile. Polyps are commonly found in the colon, stomach, nose, ear, sinus(es), urinary bladder, and uterus.

  7. Traditional serrated adenoma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traditional_serrated_adenoma

    Traditional serrated adenoma is a premalignant type of polyp found in the colon, often in the distal colon (sigmoid, rectum). Traditional serrated adenomas are a type of serrated polyp, and may occur sporadically or as a part of serrated polyposis syndrome. Traditional serrated adenomas are relatively rare, accounting for less than 1% of all ...

  8. Hyperplastic polyp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperplastic_polyp

    Serrated polyposis syndrome is a rare condition that has been defined by the World Health Organization as either: [3] ≥5 serrated lesions/polyps proximal to the rectum, all ≥ 5 mm in size, with two lesions ≥10 mm >20 serrated lesions/polyps of any size distributed throughout the large bowel with 5 proximal to the rectum.

  9. Pancreatic serous cystadenoma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pancreatic_serous_cystadenoma

    Since these lesions do not have malignant potential, long-term observation with imaging surveillance is unnecessary. [4] Surgery can include the removal of the head of the pancreas (a pancreaticoduodenectomy ), removal of the body and tail of the pancreas (a distal pancreatectomy ), or rarely removal of the entire pancreas (a total ...
