Traditional serrated adenoma, abbreviated TSA, are a rare type of gastrointestinal polyp.

Traditional serrated adenoma
Diagnosis in short
LM ectopic crypt foci (ECF), serrated, eosinophilic cytoplasm, villous-like architecture, "pine cone, fernlike, stellate pit pattern"
Subtypes With and without high grade dysplasia, mixed with other types of polyps
LM DDx villous adenoma, hyperplastic polyp, sessile serrated adenoma
IHC CK20 in the eosinophilic cells, absent in ECF; Ki67 (MIB1) stains ECF and absent in eosinophilic cells, MUC2+, MUC5CA+, MUC6-; In areas of dysplasia TP53+, nuclear B-catenin+; p16+ in late dysplasia
Molecular BRAF & KRAS
Site colon - usu. left side / gastrointestinal polyps
Prevalence very rare
Prognosis benign (pre-malignant)
Clin. DDx other GI polyps
Treatment polypectomy, q3years surveillance colonoscopy

Before the sessile serrated adenomas were recognized, these lesions were known as serrated adenomas.[1]

General

  • Very rare.
  • Pre-malignant.[2]

Gross

Microscopic

Features:[3]

  • Serrated - essential.
  • Eosinophilic cytoplasm - key feature.
  • Nuclear atypia as in tubular adenoma.
    • Nuclear hyperchromasia, enlargement and pseudostratification.
  • Villous-like architecture.

DDx:[4]

Images

  • TSA - low mag. (WC/Nephron)

  • TSA - intermed. mag. (WC/Nephron)

  • TSA - very high mag. (WC/Nephron)

  • TSA - low mag. (WC/Nephron)
