Although both sexes have seen an increase in incidence in recent years this rise has been more pronounced in men.

In this report we use . SEER registry data to explore the impact of demographic and tumor characteristics on anal cancer survival. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between 1988 and 2001 6 411 patients with primary invasive anal cancer were diagnosed in the SEER catchment area. The following cases were excluded from the analysis patients for whom anal cancer was not the first primary cancer cases identified through autopsy or death certificate only those with unknown race cases without active follow-up or alive with no survival time patients less than 20 years old cases without microscopic confirmation and tumors identified as in situ lesions sarcomas or carcinoids.
