In the United States, the 5-year survival rate of localized cancers that are treated is more than 80%, whereas of those spread to distant organs is 30%. Prevention of Anal Cancer - There is no fool-proof way to avoid the cancer completely, however if exposure to HPV and HIV virus is reduced the likelihood of developing this cancer comes down remarkably. A vaccine against HPV virus is also likely to help in preventing this cancer. A 2007 study in Lancet reported that HPV vaccine was related to a significant reduction in the likelihood of premalignant lesions of the vulva, cervix, and anus. |
