the majority are squamous cell carcinomas, but other even rarer types are recognised, such as malignant melanoma, adenocarcinoma (cancer that originates in glandular tissue), carcinoid or lymphoma.<\/p>\n<p>Squamous cell carcinoma of the anus accounts for only 1.5% of gastrointestinal tract cancers in the western world; however incidence appears to be rising.  Risk factors include a history of infection with human papilloma virus (HPV), previous genital wart infection, HIV infection, cigarette smoking, and immunosuppression following organ transplantation.<\/p>\n<p>Most anal cancers (70\u201380%) are initially diagnosed as benign anorectal conditions due to the non-specific symptoms they present with.  These include pruritis (itching), pain, bleeding, and discharge. \u2028<\/p>\n<p>Anal cancer is usually treated by chemotherapy in combination with radiotherapy.  Surgery is reserved for treatment-resistant or recurrent disease.<\/p>\n<p><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><style>.ffb-id-2tf2geid{ \npadding-top: 30px;\npadding-bottom:
