Benign ano-rectal disorders are a common adult presentation to primary care; they also generate a significant number of secondary referrals. The exact prevalence of these conditions is difficult to determine, due to under-reporting of symptoms, which patients can find embarrassing and difficult to disclose. It can be challenging to distinguish between different ano-rectal disorders which present with similar symptoms. A high index of suspicion is required to detect serious malignant pathology. The aim of this article is to outline the epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis and management of common benign ano-rectal disorders in primary care. The indications for surgical referral and important cancer referral guidelines are included.

There are many opportunities for the primary care pediatrician to participate actively in the care of children with cancer. Adverse effects of therapy must be considered in the differential diagnosis of many problems encountered by these patients, and appropriate management instituted. Adverse effects may appear during therapy or may become apparent only many years later. Referral to a hematologist/oncologist should be considered when help is needed in the diagnosis and management of possible therapy-related problems.
