Abstract
CRT is a proven and reasonable effective approach in managing anal cancer. Observed recurrence and overall survival rates in this study resemble the published data. Despite newer methods of treatment being investigated, the treatment for anal SCC has not significantly changed in the past four decades and novel approaches are needed to further improve outcomes.
