Objective: The aim of our study was to determine whether APR (abdominoperineal
resection) was the better choice for stage I and stage II anorectal melanoma.
Methods: A retrospective study of 16 patients from Chang Gung Memorial Hospital
between 1976 and 2007 was made. Ten of them had stage I and stage II diseases. We
analyzed their surgical methods and outcomes.
Results: Stage I patients had a better outcome than stage II patients. APR was the
preferred curative surgical method for anorectal melanoma (stage I, smaller tumor
size, shallower invasion depth, and thinner tumor thickness).
Conclusions: We recommend APR as curative surgery for stage I anorectal
melanoma with tumor size of less than 2 cm, tumor invasion depth not surpassing
the submucosal layer, and tumor thickness of less than 8 mm. |
