BRAF and KRAS mutations in colorectal hyperplastic polyps and serrated adenomas.

Abstract excerpt

Colorectal cancer is believed to progress through an adenoma-carcinoma sequence. However, recent evidence increasingly supports the existence of an alternative route for colorectal carcinogenesis through serrated polyps, a group that encompasses a morphological spectrum, including hyperplastic polyp (HP), admixed hyperplastic polyp/adenoma (HP/AD), and serrated adenoma (SA; the latter two manifest epithelial...
