Case study demonstrates successful treatment of anal melanoma with excision and immunotherapy, indicating potential management options.
Anal melanoma is one of the rarest forms of anal cancer and melanoma. Due to its rarity and non-specific symptoms, many cases undergo a prolonged course before diagnosis. In our case study, we present a 55-year-old female diagnosed with anal melanoma with bilateral inguinal lymph node involvement. Doublet immunotherapy followed by wide local excision was successful in treating the disease without signs of recurrence to date.
