Cervical cancer survivors may face higher risk of anal cancer
A recent study from MUSC Hollings Cancer Center reveals that cervical cancer survivors face a significantly elevated risk of developing anal cancer later in life, almost twice that of the general population. The risk increases with age and time since the initial diagnosis, particularly for women aged 65-74, highlighting the need for increased awareness and potential screening considerations.
