Clínica de Displasia Anal Gestionada por APP: Un Éxito

Anal cancer, while rare, is increasing in incidence. Recent studies and trials indicate that effective screening with treatment of precancerous anal dysplastic lesions can decrease the risk of anal cancer in high-risk patient populations. Therefore, it is important that anal cancer screening is made accessible. To this end, as has been done in other specialties, advanced practice practitioners (APPs) can help fill this need. This paper will discuss how a well-established APP managed anal dysplasia clinic, has been successful and remained viable for many years. We will discuss clinic functions, key points, and tips that can help an APP clinic run efficiently and successfully, as well as measures that have helped us with patient satisfaction and continuity.
