Résumé

PURPOSE: To analyze the prognostic factors of loco regional control (LRC), specific survival (SS) and sphincter conservation (SC) of patients treated by curative and conservative irradiation for an epidermoid cancer of anal canal in our institution. PATIENTS AND METHODS: From 1976 to 2005, 286 patients (pts) were treated by exclusive radiotherapy (180 pts) or chemo-radiotherapy (106 pts) followed by a brachytherapy boost (233 pts) or external beam radiotherapy boost (24 pts). Forty-three pts were stage I, 154 stage II, 31 stage IIIA and 53 stage IIIB. RESULTS: The mean follow-up was 65 months (range: 1.3-250 months). The 5-years-overall survival and SS rates were 66.4% and 78.1% respectively. In multivariate analysis, tumor size (>or=40 mm) [RR=2.1], node involvement (RR=2.4), and poor response (
