Traditional serrated adenomas (TSAs), despite their low incidence in colorectum, may originate in other parts of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, including stomach and small intestine. Malignant transformation for upper GI TSAs has recently been reported in the literature. Here, we present a series of gastric and small intestinal TSAs with the aim to characterize their morphologic and immunophenotypic features as well as their neoplastic potential in a compartmental manner using digitalized images.
