Hyperplastic polyp with perineuromatous stroma, also known as benign serrated colorectal fibroblastic polyps/intramucosal perineurioma and hybrid hyperplastic polyp/mucosal perineurioma, is a benign colorectal polyp.
General
- Rare.
- Benign.[1]
Microscopic
Features:
- Serrated epithelial cells (at the surface of the gland) - key feature.
- Serrated appearance = saw-tooth appearance, epithelium has jagged edge.
- Perineuromatous stroma.
