THE EPIDEMIC OF NON-MELANOMA SKIN CANCER


by: Lissing Temarkon

Nonmelanoma skin cancers (NMSCs) comprise more than one third of all cancers in the United States and are widely described as a worldwide epidemic.[1] The term "nonmelanoma skin cancer" includes 2 major types: basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Other less common NMSCs include cutaneous lymphoma, skin adnexal tumors, certain sarcomas, keratoses and sunspot.

BCC begins in the basal cell layer of the epidermis, and it accounts for about 75% to 80% of NMSCs. BCC usually develops on chronically sun-exposed areas of the skin, especially the head and neck, although about 20% of cases arise in intermittently exposed areas.[ BCC rarely dangerous, and it is usually slow growing. However, if left untreated, it may spread locally to the bone or other tissues beneath the skin.

SCC accounts for about 20% of Nonmelanoma (NMSCs). In contrast to BCC, SCC arises from more superficial layers of the epidermis and tends to be more aggressive. SCC can invade tissues beneath the skin and may spread to distant parts of the body. These cancers typically appear on sun-exposed areas of the body, such as the face, ears, neck, lips, and backs of the hands, but they can also develop within scars or skin ulcers and on the skin of the genital area. SCC can present as an erythematous to flesh-colored hyperkeratosis plaque, which may ulcerate.
