46/♂ with increasing anal discomfort and pruritus – Case 11

The cardiopulmonary examination findings are unremarkable. Inspection of the anus reveals a suspicious space-occupying lesion. The routine laboratory examination shows mild anaemia with normal leukocytes and platelets, CRP is slightly elevated, LDH is just above normal. How do you proceed diagnostically?
