According to the literature, serrated lesions and polyps of the appendix are extremely rare in children or teenagers. Herein, we present the pathologic and molecular features of a sessile serrated lesion (SSL) that was incidentally found in the appendix of a teenage girl. Our findings not only illustrate that appendiceal SSL may occur in young patients such as teenagers but also confirm further that BRAF V600E mutation may be found in a subset of these neoplastic lesions.
