Combined therapy for cancer of the anal canal: a follow-up report

T R Buroker et al. Dis Colon Rectum. 1977 Nov-Dec.

Abstract

We believe this preoperative combined therapy is highly effective in treating squamous-cell carcinoma of the anal canal, and that a subsequent larger cooperative study with controls is indicated. This pilot study suggests that some individuals may be spared abdominoperineal resection when treated in the manner described.
