✦ Synopsis


The incidence of malignancy of the anus is rare when compared to colorectal cancer. At The New York Hospital-Come11 Medical Center, 43 patients with a n a l cancer were seen since 1932. Five-year survival for patients treated by local excision, abdominal-perineal resection, and abdominal perineal resection with associated inguinofemoral groin node dissection was 4396, 6696, a n d 3396, respectively. Therapy should be guided by location, size, and depth of the local lesion, as well as clinical node status. I n general, local excision should be reserved for the most minute lesion. Groin dissection should be carried out when nodes are clinically diseased.

Locally persistent or recurrent anal carcinoma represents a clinically significant problem, the management of which remains the subject of some controversy. Although the few current data suggest that radical surgery remains the sole salvage treatment able to provide some chance of cure, some authors
