| Core Tip |
This is a retrospective study to evaluate current trends in management of anorectal melanoma (ARM). On review of 24 patients from 7 hospitals in Utah, we found that ARM is a highly lethal disease with overall survival of 18.8 mo (interquartile range 13.5-33.9) and no 5-year survivors. Only 2 patients underwent abdominoperineal resection (APR) as primary surgical management. Review of the literature demonstrated wide variation in surgical management of ARM over time and around the world. Whether APR or wide excision was used, outcomes remained poor. With this data, we recommend that surgical management should aim to minimize morbidity. |
