  • Title: [A case of minimal-sized adenocarcinoma in a fistula-in-ano].
    Author: Hashimoto M, Takano M, Fujiyoshi T, Takagi K, Kawano M.
    Journal: Nihon Geka Gakkai Zasshi; 1992 Aug; 93(8):861-3. PubMed ID: 1435711.
    Abstract:
    The patient was 47 year-old man with a simple intermuscular fistula-in-ano. Fistulectomy revealed that there was a small mucinous adenocarcinoma. The tumor was small and localized in the wall of the fistula and the muscular invasion was not recognized. The mucin contained a little O-acylated sainomucin, and the origin of the tumor was considered as anal gland cell. This case appears as one evidence that the cancer in fistula-in-ano originates from the anal gland cell in the fistula.
