Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Anorectal malignant melanoma (ARMM) is an extremely rare tumor with aggressive biological behavior. It is associated with a very poor prognosis and a 5-year survival rate of less than 10 %. There have therefore been a few reports of patients demonstrating long-term survival. We herein report a valuable case of long-term survival of a patient with ARMM with wide extension into the rectal mucosa, without endoscopic abnormalities.
