    Suffering in the shadows: the cancer no one wants to talk about
    Mar 31 2026
    An estimated one in 500 people will be diagnosed with anal cancer during their lifetime. At least 20% of them will not learn of their cancer until it has metastasized. Dr. Wasif Saif, leader of the Gastrointestinal and Neuroendocrine Oncology Multidisciplinary Team, told WWJ's Christina McDaniel this is partly because people are too embarrassed to discuss the symptoms with their doctor. So today, on the final day of Anal Cancer Awareness Month, we shine a light on the cancer no one wants to discuss. We'll also talk about the preventable virus that causes the vast majority of anal cancers. (Photo Credit: Chinnapong/GettyImages).
