Five-Year Evaluation of an Anal Cancer Screening Program in Men Who Have Sex With Men With HIV at 2 Academic Center Clinics.

Background: Guidelines recommend annual anal cytology-based squamous cell carcinoma of anus (SCCA) screening for men who have sex with men with HIV aged ≥35 years (eligible population). The recommended threshold for high-resolution anoscopy (HRA) depends on its availability: low-threshold (any abnormal cytology) if availability is high and high-threshold (high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion [HSIL] on cytology) if availability is low.

Methods: This was a retrospective chart review (2018-2022) at academic HIV clinics.
