Abstract
Although anal canal cancer is rare, its incidence has increased in the last 30 years, especially in young men. The most common pathological type is squamous cell carcinoma. Definitive histopathological diagnosis is made by biopsy. “American Joint Committee on Cancer” (AJCC) TNM staging is used for staging. The standard approach in treatment is radiochemotherapy, and surgery is applied in persistent or recurrent failure.
