Core Tip	High-resolution anoscopy is a procedure where high-risk patients are submitted to anal and perianal visualization under magnification, allowing detection of anal high-grade lesions that can be treated. Anal cancer is histologically and biologically very similar to cervical cancer and the screening follows the same principles. The importance, difficulties and the description of the technique will be discussed. This is a difficult exam to perform, with a long learning curve that requires specific equipment and the need for a multidisciplinary team, ideally in a reference centre. It remains unfamiliar for many gastroenterologists.
