Adenoma clinical and pathological features. a Adenoma histology: tubular adenomas (TB) versus tubulovillous/villous adenomas (TBV/V). b Adenoma dysplasia: low dysplasia grade versus high grade. c Adenoma diameter (mm): the adenomas were classified in two groups, using as a threshold 10 mm, a parameter currently adopted to identify higher CRC risk patients. d Number of polyps per patient: patients were divided using as a threshold 3 adenomas removed at the same time, a parameter currently used to identify higher CRC risk patients. e Adenoma mutational status: wild-type (WT) versus mutated adenomas. f Mutations identified analyzing adenomas were classified in transversions or transitions. High-risk group (dark gray) and Low-risk group (light gray)
