:''The [[stomach]] lesion is dealt with in [[hyperplastic polyp of the stomach]]''.
The '''hyperplastic [[GI polyps|polyp]]''' of the [[colon]] and rectum is a very common. It is commonly abbreviated '''HP'''.
 
==General==
*Most common type of polyp:
**Approximately 90% of all colonic polyps.<ref name=Ref_PBoD858>{{Ref PBoD|858}}</ref>
*May be part of [[serrated polyposis syndrome]] (previously known as [[hyperplastic polyposis syndrome]]).<ref name=pmid21045813>{{Cite journal  | last1 = Huang | first1 = CS. | last2 = Farraye | first2 = FA. | last3 = Yang | first3 = S. | last4 = O'Brien | first4 = MJ. | title = The clinical significance of serrated polyps. | journal = Am J Gastroenterol | volume = 106 | issue = 2 | pages = 229-40; quiz 241 | month = Feb | year = 2011 | doi = 10.1038/ajg.2010.429 | PMID = 21045813 }}</ref>

*Flat lesion, usually <= 5mm.
*Typically in the distal large bowel (rectum, sigmoid colon).
 
==Microscopic==
Features:<ref name=Ref_PBoD858/>
*Irregular crypt architecture - tortuosity.
*Serrated epithelial cells (at the surface of the gland) - only colorectal polyps - '''key feature'''.
**''Serrated'' appearance = ''saw-tooth'' appearance, epithelium has jagged edge.
 
Notes:
*Significant negatives:
**No nuclear atypia; glands ''d''arker staining ''d''eep... ''l''ighter staining ''l''uminal.
**In the colon goblet cells should be present (as is usual).
*Inflammation -- [[cryptitis]] or even crypt abscesses -- is considered to arise due to trauma.{{fact}}
**It is usually ''not'' reported.

===Subclassification===
*Usually '''not subclassified''' as there is no demonstrated prognostic significance;<ref name=pmid21045813/> the subtyping is an academic exercise.
 
HPs may be subclassified into two groups:<ref name=pmid21045813/>
#Microvesicular serrated polyps (MVSPs).
#Goblet cell serrated polyps (GCSPs).
 
Features of the HP subtypes:<ref name=pmid21045813/>
{| class="wikitable sortable"
| '''Subtype'''
| '''Histology'''
| '''Mutations'''
| '''Clinical relevance'''
|-
| Microvesicular
| microvesicles at the surface, serration<br> at the surface to the mid portion of glands
| BRAF V600E, CIMP
| possible [[sessile serrated adenoma]] precursor
|-
| Goblet cell
| superficial goblet cells, serration at <br>the surface
| [[KRAS mutation|KRAS]]
| unknown; probably benign

Notes:
*CIMP = CpG island methylation phenotype.
 
==IHC==
*[[Chromogranin A]] increased scattered Chromogranin A-positive cells (in relation to normal colorectal mucosa).
**[[Sessile serrated adenoma]] is completely negative for [[Chromogranin A]].

POLYP, LARGE BOWEL AT 10 CM, EXCISION:

</pre>
 
====Numerous hyperplastic polyps====
<pre>
COLONIC POLYP(S), POLYPECTOMY:
- HYPERPLASTIC POLYP, SEE COMMENT. 
 
COMMENT:
Eight pieces of tissue were received.  On microscopy eight pieces of tissue
are identified and all eight (individually) have the diagnostic features of a
hyperplastic polyp.  If these fragments all represent individual polyps and more
polyps of this type are present in the individual, it raises the possibility of
a serrated polyposis syndrome.
</pre>
 
====Superficial changes only====
<pre>
TRANSVERSE COLON (POLYP), BIOPSY:
- COLORECTAL-TYPE MUCOSA WITH SURFACE HYPERPLASTIC CHANGE.
- NEGATIVE FOR DYSPLASIA.
</pre>
 
===Micro===
====Goblet cell type====
The sections show colonic-type mucosa with superficial serrations rich in goblet cells.  There are no serrations in the crypt base and there is no crypt base dilation.  No dysplasia is present.
 
====Generic====
The sections show colonic-type mucosa with superficial serrations.  There are no serrations in the crypt base and there is no crypt base dilation.  No dysplasia is present.
 
=====Alternate=====
The sections show two tissue fragments of colorectal-type mucosa.  One fragment has no
pathologic change. The second fragment has the changes of a hyperplastic polyp
(superficial serrations, no serrations in the crypt base, no crypt base dilation).
 
====Minimal crypt base dilation====
The sections show colonic-type mucosa with superficial serrations. Rare serrations are seen
focally near the crypt base. Rare mild crypt base dilation is seen. No hockey stick-shaped
glands are identified. No crypt branching is seen. No dysplasia is present.
