Efficacy and Safety of Anal High‐Grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesion Treatment Modalities: A Systematic Review

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background There is compelling evidence that treating high‐grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL), the anal squamous cell cancer (ASCC) precursor, reduces the risk of developing ASCC. Using high‐resolution anoscopy (HRA), surgical excision, ablative and topical therapies are widely used to treat HSIL.
