Abstract
We report a case of a patient affected by epidermoid anal cancer who had hepatic progression after standard therapy with the Nigro regimen (fluorouracil and mitomycin C plus radiotherapy). This is an uncommon neoplasm against which only few chemotherapeutic agents have been tested. In our patient salvage treatment with low dose irinotecan resulted in a partial response.Entities:
