nal dysplasia precedes anal cancer. High-definition chromoendoscopy
with narrow band imaging and acetic acid was used to identify anal
squamous intraepithelial lesions (SIL) in patients with abnormal anal
cytology. 260 Patients were examined. Demographic characteristics are
mean age (range) 47 (21-82) years; MSM (n= 158); HIV positive (n= 161).
Associated diagnoses are urogynecologic SIL, solid organ/bone marrow
transplantation and inflammatory bowel disease. Lesions were biopsied
for histologic diagnosis and then ablated with hot forceps or Gold probe™.
Results showing comparison of cytology to histopathology are shown in
Table 1.
ASCUS = atypical cells of undetermined significance; LSIL = low grade
squamous intraepithelial lesion; HSIL – high grade squamous intraepithe-
lial lesion; SCC = squamous cell carcinoma. These results are for first time
chromoendoscopy.
Anal transitional zone lesion identification is enhanced by retroflexed
inspection during rectal insufflation. Anal canal lesion detection is
facilitated by endoscopic inspection through a lighted anoscope. Providers
who perform esophagoduodenoscopy and/or colonoscopy routinely
should be able to perform anal chromoendoscopy to detect anal SIL since
the technique is part of routine gastroendoscopic practice.
