Anal Canal Carcinoma Treatment Results: The Experience of a Single Institution
CONCLUSION: Combined chemoradiation in treatment of anal cancer is effective in terms of local control and sphincter preservation. Five-year estimates of PFS, OS, as well as CFS, in patients treated with a MTB were surprisingly comparable to those determined in most non-MTB series. However, we reported a higher local failure rate, for which we are reevaluating our treatment protocol. Ann Saudi Med 2011; 31(2): 158-162PMID: 21403412 DOI: 10.4103/0256-4947.77488
