High Risk of Colostomy with Primary Radiotherapy for Anal Cancer
2007

Radiotherapy (RT) has become the primary treatment of choice for anal cancer in an effort to avoid colostomy. The current role of surgery appears generally to be underestimated, since diverting colostomy or abdominoperineal resection still often seems to be necessary for complications and local treatment failure after RT.
