Detected APC, KRAS, and BRAF Mutations in Serrated Polyps (HPs, SSAs, TSAs, and Mixed Polyps) and Adenomas (ADs) of Patients with HPS Compared with a Control Group

Patients with HPS, No. (%)
Control group, No. (%)
Somatic mutation Serrated polyps (n = 64) AD (n = 20) Serrated polyps (n = 42) AD (n = 17) P value
APC 0 9 (45) 0 7 (41) NS
BRAF 48 (75) 0 20 (48) 0 0.007
KRAS 4 (6) 0 7 (17) 4 (24) 0.029

NS, not significant.

Statistically significant P value for BRAF mutation frequency in serrated polyps of patients with HPS compared with the frequency in serrated polyps of the control group.

Statistically significant P value for KRAS mutation frequency in ADs of patients with HPS compared with the frequency in ADs of the control group.
