Challenges in the implementation of a high-resolution anoscopy clinic for people with HIV in an oncologic center in Mexico City
Diagnosis and management of anal HSIL have become a standard of care in the prevention of Anal Carcinoma in PWIH, the population with the highest incidence of this neoplasia. Implementing HRA programs requires correct supplies and equipment, which are not always locally available; investing in physicians' training and an experienced pathologist in HPV-associated lesions interpretation is also imperative. More advocacy is needed for HIV programs to incorporate and invest in anal cancer screening.
