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.
