  • Title: [Perianal colloid adenocarcinoma. Apropos of a case].
    Author: Cougard P, Dramard JM, Morin F, Ferry C.
    Journal: J Chir (Paris); 1988 Apr; 125(4):276-8. PubMed ID: 2839530.
    Abstract:
    A 50 year old man with a 5-year history of recurrent anal fistula was treated by abdominoperineal amputation of rectum for perianal colloid adenocarcinoma. Characters of this rare affection of debatable pathogenicity are described, based on a literature review of 82 similar cases. The findings illustrate the evocative nature of an induration or better still a mucoid discharge from a recurrent anal fistula, and the need for deep and repeated biopsies to establish diagnosis. Since the course remains for a long period at the local and regional levels the treatment of choice is abdomino-perineal amputation.
