We present 35 cases postoperative anal stenosis of patients operated at the Sanatorio y Maternidad del Sur, Bahía Blanca, Argentina, in the last 9 years (1978-1986). In 9 cases (25.7% the pathologist reported leukoplasic lesions from the anus and anal channel. We remark the value of the pathology in these cases and we suggest to send to the pathologist all the tissues from anal surgery, because we believe this is the way to make the best prophylaxis of anal cancer.
