Cancer of the anal canal is an uncommon malignancy and accounts for less than 4% of large bowel cancers. It affects around 800 people in the UK and 3,400 in the USA per annum. The incidence is rising worldwide, but particularly in the USA, with San Francisco having the highest incidence, attributed to a large homosexual male population [1]. © 2010 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
