Short‐term morbidity and mortality following surgical treatment of anal squamous cell carcinoma in Sweden – A national multicentre study
This national cohort study presents the largest recent series of surgically treated ASCC patients in Sweden. Surgery caused substantial short-term morbidity, particularly perineal morbidity, while short-term mortality remained low. Although no significant risk factors for major complications were identified, these findings highlight the need for improved perineal wound management and further evaluation of long-term outcomes.
