Carcinoma of the anal canal is a relatively uncommon tumor of digestive-system cancers. Most of these carcinomas develop from squamous epithelium, but some arise from the transitional zone between the columnar epithelium of the rectum and the squamous epithelium of the anal canal. The latter type is called cloacogenic or transitional carcinoma. A 46 year-old male who presented with purulan discharge and bleeding from anus had anal tumoral mass. The mass was completely resected and shown to be transisyonaal carcinoma of anus by histopathologic examination. We reported a case of cloacogenic or transitional carcinoma because of rarity. Keywords: Carcinoma, transitional cell, anal canal
