An Anal Polyp Presetting as Malignant Melanoma- A Rare Case Report
Dr. Rachit Jain, Dr. A. K. Radder
Abstract: Anorectal melanoma is an uncommon and aggressive mucosal melanocytic malignancy. Due to its rarity, the pre - operative diagnosis remains difficult. The first symptoms are non - specific such as anal bleeding, anal mass or pain. Although it carries a poor prognosis; optimal therapeutics strategies are unclear. Surgical resection remains the mainstay of treatment. We report a case with malignant melanoma of anal canal.
