title: Combined treatment of basaloid anal carcinoma using cisplatin, 5-fluorouracil and resection of hepatic metastasis.
abstract: The combination of chemotherapy and radiotherapy with subsequent repeated local biopsy has become the standard treatment of epidermoid carcinoma. The optimal treatment of metastatic anal carcinomas is controversial. We present the case of 54-year-old woman with a diagnosis of metastatic basaloid anal carcinoma. The patient underwent resection of liver metastasis in combination with cisplatin + 5FU and local radiotherapy, without evident disease 3 years after diagnosis.
