We studied the frequency and distribution of cellular atypia in 448 cases of vulvar dystrophy. The total frequency was 9.4%. Atypia was found almost exclusively in hyperplastic areas. Epithelial changes suggestive of human papillomavirus infection were found in 14.2% of the atypical dystrophies. During the follow-up of 78 patients with typical dystrophy, mild atypia developed in three cases, but with the continuation of medical treatment it disappeared in two cases. Eleven cases of atypical dystrophy were followed for 3-48 months; three patients with severe atypia underwent surgical treatment, and eight with mild atypia underwent medical treatment. Among the last patients, six showed regression and two, progression of the atypia.

We present the case of a 68-year-old woman who underwent complete endoscopic resection of a superficial serrated adenoma (SuSA). Due to its rarity and limited case reports, SuSA is often misdiagnosed as a hyperplastic lesion without malignant potential, leading to missed diagnoses. A polypoid lesion was identified in the sigmoid colon during the initial endoscopic evaluation, where it was initially classified as a sessile serrated lesion (SSL).
