Background: The purpose of this study was to determine the frequency of Serrated polyps of colonic polyps samples in Hazrat_e Rasoul_e Akram Hospital over ten years. Materials: The target group in this study was patients with colonic polyps in Hazrat_e Rasoul_e Akram Hospital. Pathologic evaluation of these patients was done. Serrated polyps, by location, gender, age and type of polyps were divided and frequency of them were determined separately. Results: Of 381 patients studied, 224 (58.79%) and 157(41.20%) were males and females, respectively. Mean age of patients was 59.25 years. In initial diagnosis, frequency of Adenomatous polyp, Hyperplastic polyp and Mixed polyp were 92.44% and 5.33%, and 2.22%, respectively. In final diagnosis (Second evaluation), frequency of Adenomatous polyp, Hyperplastic polyp, Mixed polyp, Sessile Serrated Adenoma/ Polyp, Traditional Serrated Adenoma and SPU (Serrated Polyp Unclassifiable) were 90.44%, 4.88%, 2.44%, 1.11%, 0.66% and 0.44%, respectively. 72.13% and 27.86% of polyps were low grade dysplasia and high grade dysplasia, respectively. According to the results of this study, the incidence of all types of polyps detected was more in men than women. Rectum and sigmoid were most abundant in the area polyp in both initial and final diagnosis. Conclusion: Despite the low prevalence of Serrated polyps in patients, early diagnosis is the best action to reduce morbidity and mortality. Probability of the risk of progression from low grade to high grade dysplasia and transforming into Adenocarcinoma is high in Serrated polyps.
