Abstract
Management of anal cancer shifted from radical surgical procedures to sphincterpreserving approaches by combined radiochemotherapy RCT Several randomized trials investigated the most appropriate chemotherapy schedule radiation doses and treatment techniques RCT employing 5fluorouracil 5FU/mitomycin C MMC remains the standard treatment Cisplatin was proposed as an alternative drug but failed to improve outcome when given instead of MMC or during maintenance chemotherapy Currently studies are ongoing that investigate staging procedures like PETCT and diagnostic workup processes in treatment followup
