Anal Cancer treatment in Srikakulam
Anal cancer arises at the end of the digestive tract and is commonly linked to HPV infection. Unlike rectal cancer, the standard curative treatment for most anal cancers is chemo-radiation rather than surgery, which preserves the sphincter in the majority of patients.

About anal cancer
Anal cancer arises at the end of the digestive tract and is commonly linked to HPV infection. Unlike rectal cancer, the standard curative treatment for most anal cancers is chemo-radiation rather than surgery, which preserves the sphincter in the majority of patients.
Who is at higher risk
- HPV infection
- Multiple sexual partners or receptive anal intercourse
- Smoking
- Weakened immunity including HIV
- Chronic fistula or inflammation
Having a risk factor doesn’t mean you will get cancer.
How it’s diagnosed
Examination and proctoscopy with biopsy confirm the diagnosis. MRI of the pelvis and PET-CT define local extent and nodal involvement.
Many of these tests can be arranged by your CION team in Srikakulam.
Treatment options
Your plan depends on the type and stage of the cancer and on your overall health. CION’s tumour board agrees on it with you.

Cancers We Treat
CION treats these and other cancers. Not sure about yours? Ask when you call.
1Will I need a permanent colostomy?
Most patients are cured with chemo-radiation and keep normal bowel function. Colostomy is reserved for the minority needing salvage surgery.
2Is anal cancer the same as piles?
No, but both can bleed and itch. Any anal complaint that persists beyond a few weeks of treatment deserves examination and, if needed, biopsy.
3Does HPV vaccination help?
HPV vaccination before exposure reduces the risk of HPV-related cancers, including anal cancer.
4Where is anal cancer treated near Srikakulam?
CION’s doctors see patients in Srikakulam. Consultations, chemotherapy and many tests can be arranged locally; surgery and radiation are done at partner centres, and your team tells you where to go. Call 1800 202 8726 to check where and when.
