Immunohistochemical staining in a representative case of sessile serrated adenoma/polyp (SSA/P) with dysplasia (Case #2). a Dilated crypts and deep serration, corresponding to SSA/P, were seen on the left side, and high-grade dysplasia without submucosal invasion was seen on the right side. An abrupt transition was seen between the 2 adjacent regions (arrow). b High-power field of (a) (the right side). A view shows high-grade dysplasia without submucosal invasion, which was pathologically consistent with SSA/P with cytologic dysplasia. The lesion showed nuclear β-catenin expression (c) and a loss of MLH1 expression (d). Regarding phenotypic mucin expression, the lesion was positive for MUC2 (e), MUC5AC (f), and MUC6 (g) expression, and negative for CD10 (H) expression
