Abstract
The authors report a case of an 85-year-old patient suffering from perianal Paget's disease treated with polychemotherapy and radiotherapy, and followed for 30 months with no evidence of recurrence. Such treatment may be an effective alternative to surgical resection in elderly patients, although no definitive conclusion can be drawn due to the rarity of the disease.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
