Diagnostic issues in the diagnosis of hyperplastic polyp and sessile serrated polyp. a A proximal microvesicular hyperplastic polyp can be confidently diagnosed if the polyp is well-oriented and no characteristic sessile serrated polyp-type crypts are present. b A proximal goblet cell hyperplastic polyp with subtle superficial serrations and goblet cell rich epithelium. c A diminutive sessile serrated polyp with a single unequivocal architecturally abnormal crypt. d A microvesicular hyperplastic polyp with prominent mucosal prolapse resulting in abnormal crypt architecture that could mimic a sessile serrated polyp
