'''Serrated polyposis syndrome''', previously known as '''hyperplastic polyposis syndrome''', is an uncommon condition characterized by the presence of serrated (colonic) polyps ([[hyperplastic polyp]]s, [[sessile serrated adenoma]]s), probably represents several distinct pathologies and is associated with an increased risk of [[colorectal carcinoma]].<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 | URL = http://www.nature.com/ajg/journal/v106/n2/full/ajg2010429a.html }}</ref> | '''Serrated polyposis syndrome''', previously known as '''hyperplastic polyposis syndrome''', is an uncommon condition characterized by the presence of serrated (colonic) polyps ([[hyperplastic polyp]]s, [[sessile serrated adenoma]]s), probably represents several distinct pathologies and is associated with an increased risk of [[colorectal carcinoma]].<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 | URL = http://www.nature.com/ajg/journal/v106/n2/full/ajg2010429a.html }}</ref> | ||
