What is anal dysplasia?
Anal dysplasia refers to abnormal changes in the cells lining the anal canal, often caused by persistent high-risk HPV infection. These changes are not cancer — but they can develop into anal cancer over time if left untreated. That’s why screening and follow-up care are so important.

Who is at greater risk for anal dysplasia and anal cancer?
People living with HIV, men who have sex with men, transgender women, individuals who are immunocompromised, and anyone with a history of HPV-related disease are at increased risk. Regular screening with anal Pap tests and high-resolution anoscopy (HRA) is especially important for these groups.
