Anal Cancer Treatment
The anal canal is a short passage, between 1 and 2 inches long, that connects the anus to the rectum. This area plays a key role in the elimination of solid waste from the body. Anal cancer develops when abnormal cells begin to grow uncontrollably in the anal canal or surrounding abdominal region.
When is Anal Cancer Surgery Needed?
-
The cancer is localized and has not spread beyond the anal canal. -
Radiation therapy is not an option, especially if you have previously received treatment in the pelvic region.
Benefits of Anal Cancer Surgery
The primary goal of surgery is to remove the cancerous tumor and any surrounding tissue that may be affected. If the tumors are small and localized, they can be removed via a procedure called local resection. This procedure offers a high chance of curing the cancer, while leaving the sphincter muscles and anus intact, allowing for normal control over bowel movements.
Diagnostic Process
-
Digital Rectal Exam: The doctor performs a manual examination by inserting a lubricated, gloved finger into the rectum.
-
Visual Inspection: The doctor examines the anal canal and rectum for visible signs of cancer.
-
Ultrasound: This imaging technique is used to capture detailed pictures of the anal canal and identify any abnormalities.
How is the Surgery Performed?
Treatment for anal cancer generally includes surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy. The approach depends on various factors, such as the type and stage of cancer, potential side effects, and the patient's general health. This collaborative decision-making process ensures the patient receives the most appropriate treatment for their condition.
Recovery and Post-Operative Care
-
Avoid sitting for extended periods (no more than 10–15 minutes at a time).
-
Sitting on a foam pillow can help, but avoid rubber rings.
-
Do not drive if you are taking pain medication.
Depending on the procedure, it may take a few days to several weeks to return to normal activities. Your doctor will guide you on your specific recovery plan.
