Cancer diagnosis of hyperplastic polyp, adenoma, and serrated ade- noma. 10,11 The following parameters were evaluated for each polyp: size, presence or absence of a stalk, nuclear atypia (as defined by nuclear enlargement, irregular nuclear membranes, chromatin clumping, conspicuous and/or multiple and irregular nucleoli, and hyperchromasia), shape of the nuclei (round vs. oval vs. elongated), crowding and pseudostratification of nuclei, the presence and distribution of mitotic figures in at least 10 crypts, the length and dilatation of the crypts, serration, the presence of branching and horizontally oriented crypts, the content of goblet cells (absolute content per crypt), and the number of endocrine cells (eosinophilic endocrine cells on H& E and argyrophilic cells on Churukian Shenk stained slides). The terms serrated, serration, and traditional adenomatous change were used as previously described. 10 Serrated and serration refer to a sawtooth crypt configuration due to luminal infoldings, and traditional adenomatous change refers to a polyp with closely spaced tubules (tubular adenoma) and/or villi (villous and tubulovillous adenoma) composed of incom- pletely differentiated columnar cells, usually with decreased mucin content and elongated and pseudostratified nuclei. The presence of mitotic figures in different compartments was designated as b for basal only and as d for diffuse distribution (including the middle and upper zones of the crypt). The content of endocrine cells was determined by counting endocrine cells in at least 10 crypts (every fourth crypt in the polyp was studied) and expressed as an average number per crypt. The distribution of the cytoplasmic reactivity with Churukian Shenk stain was also recorded. All parameters, except the presence and distribution of mitotic figures and content of endocrine cells, were scored on a semiquantitative scale from 0 to 3 as follows: 0, negative; 1/ (mild), focal, scattered, slight; 2/ (moderate), readily apparent; and 3/ (marked), predominant. In each polyp, focal find- ings were also scored separately. The type of the mucosa present at the margins of the 4 carcinomas was examined and designated as either transitional mucosa (nonpolypoid, nonneoplastic colonic or rectal mucosa that lies within a few centimeters of a colorectal adenocarcinoma that shows an increase in mucosal thickness and mild distortion of crypt architecture, increase in goblet cells in crypts, and increase in lamina propria vascularity), traditional adenoma, or serrated polyps. Results Patients The age of the patients; number, shape, average size, and distribution of the polyps; and presence of can- cer are summarized in Table 1. Pathology Macroscopically, the dominant feature of polyps in our patients was their large size (the largest was 4.5 cm with an average of at least 1.2 cm) (Figure 1A and 1B). Patients 1 and 2 had only sessile polyps, whereas the other 4 patients also had rare pedunculated polyps. All 10 control classic hyperplastic polyps were sessile and measured no more than 0.6 cm. Of 10 control adenomas, 3 were sessile and 7 were pedunculated. The largest adenoma measured 2.2 cm. Two of 3 control serrated adenomas were sessile, and 1 was pedunculated. The largest control serrated adenoma measured 2.5 cm. Microscopically, low-power analysis of the polyps in our patients showed serrated, elongated, and greatly di- lated crypts with dilatation most prominent at the base of the crypts (Figure 2). In many areas, there were hori- zontally oriented crypts running just above the muscu- laris mucosae (Figure 3A), often with goblet cells at the base of the crypts (Figure 3B). The content of goblet cells varied from decreased to similar to that of normal mucosa or hyperplastic polyp and to focally increased (Figure 3A). The most dilated crypts had an increased content of goblet cells with mucus collecting in the crypts and on the surface of the mucosa. However, in many areas, there was slight or moderate depletion of the mucin content, which was most frequently found in areas with eosinophilic cytoplasm (Figure 4) or more traditional adenomatous change. These were randomly
3 750 TORLAKOVIC AND SNOVER GASTROENTEROLOGY Vol. 110, No. 3 it was difficult to precisely compare it with polyps in our patients due to more complex architecture. Dilatation of the crypts also varied greatly in different adenomas as well as in different areas of the same adenoma and had no predilection for more prominent dilatation towards the base of the crypts. Some horizontally oriented crypts were present. They were not limited to close proximity of the muscularis mucosae as in our patients, but rather the crypts had a random orientation and distribution. Branching of the crypts was prominent. Three control serrated adenomas by definition had serrated as well as elongated crypts. One case had random dilatation of the crypts as well as randomly distributed crypts with variable orientation, similar to more tradi- tional adenoma. Diminished mucin content was prominent and was accompanied by eosinophilic cytoplasm throughout the polyp. Branching of the crypts was prominent (Figure 5). Two control serrated adenomas had areas that were identical to those found in our patients in addition to the above-described features. Medium- and high-power analysis of our 6 cases showed mainly round and oval nuclei located basally in the cell with very focal nuclear elongation, crowding, and pseudostratification (Figure 6). Mitotic figures were found in the base and middle zones of the crypts with rare mitotic figures present in the upper zone and surface. Nuclear atypia, including nuclear enlargement, irregular nuclear membranes, chromatin clumping, hyperchromasia, and prominent single or multiple large nucleoli, was uniformly present. Fifteen control hyperplastic polyps had uniform round or focally, slightly elongated nuclei. No prominent elongation, crowding, and pseudostratification was found. Mitotic figures were limited to the basal zones of the crypts. In 6 of 10 polyps, there were also vesiculated distributed. Serration of the crypts was prominent and extended deeply into the crypts, some of which were serrated at the base (Figure 2). Branching of the crypts was absent or minimal. Fifteen control classic hyperplastic polyps were serrated with slightly to moderately elongated crypts that were only focally slightly dilated. No horizontally oriented crypts were present. The content of goblet cells was evaluated in the upper and middle zones of the crypts and was increased; however, no mucus accumulation was noted in the crypts or on the surface. Although serration of the crypts was prominent, in 6 polyps it was limited to the upper zone, in 2 it extended also into the middle zone, and in the remaining 2 it closely approached the base of the crypts. No definite branching was present. Ten control traditional adenomas showed no serration. Variable elongation of the crypts was present; however, Figure 1. Gross specimen from patient 3. (A) Note the presence of several sessile elevations of the mucosa with the appearance of thickened folds lighter in color than the surrounding mucosa (arrows). (B) Cut section through one of these sessile lesions (top section in figure with margins of the lesion marked by arrows) shows thickening of the mucosa in comparison with a section of noninvolved mucosa from the same specimen (bottom section in figure). Note that the increase in thickness is confined to the mucosa; the total wall thickness is essentially unchanged. Figure 2.

4 March 1996 SERRATED ADENOMATOUS POLYPOSIS 751 Figure 5. Control solitary serrated adenoma. Serration, branching of the crypts, nuclear atypia, and moderately decreased mucin content are noted. Ten control adenomas had crowded oval or elongated nuclei. In rare, cystically dilated crypts, there was no nuclear crowding, and nuclei were round or oval. The nuclei were located basally in the cell in 7 polyps at least focally; however, for the most part, there was prominent pseudostratification. Mitotic figures were frequently found throughout the crypts, including the surface. Nuclear enlargement, irregular nuclear membranes, chromatin clumping, hyperchromasia, and prominent nucleoli were also prominent. One control serrated adenoma had nuclear features very similar to the above-described more traditional ade- noma. Two other cases, in areas that were on low power architecturally identical to polyps in our patients, also had nuclear features comparable with them (Figure 8). In our patients, the contents of endocrine cells assessed by analysis of H&E-stained sections showed complete Figure 3. (A) Horizontally oriented crypts are typically present just above muscularis mucosae. Overall mucin production is comparable with normal mucosa and/or hyperplastic polyp. (B) Numerous goblet cells are present at the base of this crypt (note the muscularis mucosae just visible in the lower right corner). Focal decreased mucin content and nuclear elongation, and crowding is present toward luminal aspect of this crypt. nuclei (mostly in the basal and middle zones) that contained small inconspicuous single nucleoli. However, there was no significant nuclear enlargement, no irregular nuclear membranes, and no hyperchromasia (Figure 7). Figure 4. Decreased mucin content is apparent in these irregularly shaped serrated crypts. The cytoplasm is eosinophilic in some segments of these crypts (arrows). Figure 6. Nuclear elongation, pseudostratification, and nuclear crowding in sessile serrated adenomas in our patients varied in extent; however, they were mainly focal and could be easily overlooked at low power.
5 752 TORLAKOVIC AND SNOVER GASTROENTEROLOGY Vol. 110, No. 3 The contents of endocrine cells assessed on Churukian Shenk-stained slides paralleled results obtained on H&E-stained slides. In polyps from our patients, typical endocrine cells with strong subnuclear staining were ab- sent, although rare cells that had centrally located nuclei showed diffuse weak cytoplasmic staining. Adjacent his- tologically normal mucosa and control hyperplastic polyps had strongly stained endocrine cells with a predomi- nately subnuclear staining pattern. Control adenomas and serrated adenomas showed both strongly and weakly stained cells. Serrated adenomas, in areas identical to polyps in our patients, had a few weakly stained cells and very rare strongly stained cells. Two patterns of p53 positivity were observed in our patients and control serrated adenomas: a focal positivity in proliferation zones and a single cell pattern (frequently the cells that lost polarity or were dysmorphic goblet cells). Tubular/tubulovillous adenomas had p53 positiv- ity in either diffuse or focal distribution (random cell groups throughout the adenoma). Two hyperplastic polyps diffusely overexpressed p53, whereas 13 others were negative, including in the proliferation zones. Serrated polyps in our patients coexpressed Lewis a and Lewis b antigens either diffusely (1 patient) or focally (2 patients). The coexpression of these antigens was also seen in 3 of 3 control serrated adenomas, 4 of 15 hyperplastic polyps, and 5 of 10 control tubular/tubulovillous adenomas. Apical and/or glycocalyx binding of peanut lectin was seen at least focally in serrated polyps in our patients, 3 of 3 control serrated adenoma, 3 of 15 hyperplastic polyps, and 2 of 10 control tubular/tubulovillous adenomas. The mucosal margins of all four carcinomas (patients absence or very rare eosinophilic endocrine cells in the polyps, whereas adjacent, histologically normal appearing mucosa had 1 7 eosinophilic endocrine cells per crypt (average, ú2.6; located mainly at the basal zone of the crypts). Nine control hyperplastic polyps had normal and 6 had increased eosinophilic endocrine cells (average, ú4.6 per crypt; mainly at the basal and middle zones, some at the surface). Control adenomas showed great variability in the contents of eosinophilic endocrine cells, which also varied in different areas of the same adenoma. Some crypts contained numerous endocrine cells, whereas others had none. Overall, in 10 control traditional adenomas, the contents of eosinophilic endocrine cells was decreased to an average of õ2.0 per crypt. Three serrated adenomas also showed variable contents of eosinophilic endocrine cells, which were also absent or very rare in areas that resembled those of polyps in our patients, and variable, with an average of per crypt, in more adenomatous but also serrated areas. Figure 7. Comparison of the (A) control hyperplastic polyp and (B) a sessile serrated polyp (patient 3). Although these areas have almost identical low-power appearance, the nuclei in the hyperplastic polyp are small and only occasional nuclei contain inconspicuous nucleoli. The nuclei in the sessile serrated polyp are larger and have prominent nucleoli. Figure 8. Comparison of the nuclear features in the least atypical areas in a control isolated serrated adenoma (right) and a sessile serrated polyp from one of our patients that was initially diagnosed as a hyperplastic polyp (left) (patient 3). Both polyps have large round nuclei with prominent nucleoli. Depletion of mucin content is more prominent in the control serrated adenoma, whereas both have irregular distribution of goblet cells.
