1. Local excision
Suitable for early superficial tumors, preserving anal function with limited trauma and rapid recovery.
2. Abdominoperineal resection
A definitive option after failure of chemoradiotherapy, involving resection of the anus and rectum with permanent colostomy.
3. Laparoscopic minimally invasive surgery
Used for abdominoperineal resection, reducing surgical trauma and accelerating recovery, and requires an experienced surgical team.
4. Radiotherapy
External beam radiotherapy combined with brachytherapy; precision techniques spare normal tissues and reduce complications.
5. Concurrent chemoradiotherapy
The standard regimen, combining radiotherapy with chemotherapy to improve local control.
6. Chemotherapy
Cisplatin plus 5-fluorouracil is administered concurrently with radiotherapy to improve local control and survival.
7. Targeted therapy
Agents directed at specific molecular targets may provide new options for recurrent or metastatic disease.
8. Immunotherapy
Immune checkpoint inhibitors activate antitumor immunity and have shown activity in selected patients with advanced disease.
9. Laser therapy
May be used for early superficial tumors with minimal trauma, requiring strict indication selection.
10. Palliative care
Focused on controlling symptoms such as pain and bleeding to improve quality of life in advanced disease.
11. Comprehensive multimodal therapy
An individualized plan integrating multiple modalities aims to maximize treatment efficacy.
Jinshazhou Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine emphasizes that anal cancer management should balance tumor control with functional preservation. Early standardized diagnosis and treatment can significantly improve cure outcomes and increase the likelihood of sphincter preservation. MDT-based individualized planning is essential, and emerging therapies continue to improve outcomes. Patients are encouraged to maintain confidence, actively participate in treatment, and adhere to regular follow-up.
