Objective:To investigate the factors related to diagnosis and treatment,15 patients with anal squamous carcinoma were analyzed. Methods:15 patients with anal squamous carcinoma were in our hospital during 1984-1998.Only 5 patients were diagnosed as cancer of anal canal in first time.In these 15 patients,11 received radiotherapy and chemotherapy,8 received Miles operation. Results:15 patients with anal squamous carcinoma were proven by pathologic examination,6 in NCCN (2003) stage Ⅰ, 4 in stage Ⅱ, 2 in stage ⅢA, 3 in stage ⅢB.Interstitial fibrosis of tumor tissue was shown by immunohistochemistry,(+++) was in 4 patients,(++) in 7 ones,(+) in 4 ones.The patients were followed in 10 year,average of survival time was (47±27.6) months. Conclusion:Anus digital examination was emphasized for finding and diagnosis of the anal carcinoma.Radiotherapy and combined therapy including radiotherapy,chemotherapy and surgery are important treatments of the anal carcinoma.Staging,metastasis of inguinal lymph nodes,treatment,and interstitial fibrosis of tumor tissue affect the prognosis of anal squamous carcinoma patients.
