#The phrase "negative for [...] malignancy" is also recommended in the Canadian consensus. This is not endorsed here, as one very frequently does not get submucosa.  It is like reporting "negative for submucosal invasion" on gastric biopsies. Further, they do not advise "negative for dysplasia and malignancy" for [[SSA]]s.  If there is clinical suspicion of an invasive malignancy, it is useful to comment that no submucosa is present.
#The phrase "negative for [...] malignancy" is also recommended in the Canadian consensus. This is not endorsed by [[onlinepathology]], as one very frequently does not get submucosa.  It is like reporting "negative for muscularis propria invasion" on a urinary bladder biopsy without muscularis propria. Further, the guidelines are inconsistent in that they do not advise "negative for dysplasia and malignancy" for [[SSA]]s.  If there is clinical suspicion of an invasive malignancy, it is useful to comment that no submucosa is present.
