While SSLs show indolent growth before becoming dysplastic ([ 10–15 years), SSLDs are considered to rapidly progress to either immunogenic microsatellite instable-high (MSI-H) CRC (presumably 75% of cases) or mesenchymal microsatellite stable (MSS) CRC. Their flat shapes and the relatively short window of this intermediate state make it difficult to detect and diagnose SSLDs; thus, these lesions are potent precursors of post-colonoscopy/interval cancers. Confusing terminology and the lack of longitudinal observation data of serrated polyps have hampered the accumulation of knowledge about SSLDs; however, a growing body of evidence has started to clarify their characteristics and biology. Together with recent efforts to incorporate terminology, histological studies of SSLDs have identified distinct dysplastic patterns and revealed alterations in the tumor microenvironment (TME) . Molecular studies at the single-cell level have identified distinct gene alterations in both the epithelium and the TME.

Colonoscopy is used to detect and simultaneously remove pre-malignant colorectal polyps before they develop into invasive cancers. However, several studies have reported that 5–8% of all CRCs are diagnosed in patients who have undergone colonoscopies 3–5 years before diagnosis [2–6] . These cancers are usually called post-colonoscopy CRCs or interval CRCs, and have become an important clinical issue that attracts physicians’ attention.  \nThree decades ago, sporadic CRCs were considered to arise exclusively from colorectal adenomas through the‘‘adenoma–carcinoma sequence,’’ and colorectal serrated polyps, characterized by a saw-toothed pattern of colonic crypts, were thought to be harmless hyperplastic lesions [7, 8] . However, serrated polyps have now been recognized as alternative precursors that potentially progress to CRC, representing another key oncogenic route, named ‘‘serrated neoplasia pathway,’’ which accounts for approximately  \n15–30% of sporadic CRCs [9–13] . In this alternative route, CRCs mostly arise from sessile serrated lesions (SSLs), which display a flat elevated hyperplastic mucosa with a unique morphological change in crypt bottom, such as a‘‘boot’’ or ‘‘inverted T’’ shape appearance.
