摘要
Background: Anal canal is the lower most part of the gastrointestinal tract harbouring 4 % of all gastrointestinal cancer. Most common treatment for anal canal carcinoma includes chemoradiotherapy. Methodology: We reviewed the recent landmark trials to find a road map in the management of anal canal carcinoma. Results: Concurrent chemoradiotherapy appears to be the most effective treatment schedule. Induction, as well as maintenance chemotherapy, has no definite role. Moderate dose radiation 50.4–54 Gy with concurrent mitomycin C (MMC) and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) remains the standard. Split course is detrimental. Intensity-modulated radiotherapy and targeted drugs are investigated. Conclusion: Combined modality therapy is the standard for anal canal carcinoma. © 2014, Springer Science+Business Media New York.
