Abstract Skin cancer, including both melanoma and non-melanoma, is the most common type of malignancy in the Caucasian population. Melanoma The increased incidence of melanoma has not been accompanied by a corresponding increase in mortality rates [ 12 ]. Reasons for Increased Incidence of Skin Cancer The observed increases in skin cancer rates are associated with several factors, including the transition toward significantly older populations that are associated with a higher risk of NMSC [ 27 ].
Open in a separate window. Case study: cheilitis actinica versus actinic keratosis mouth and cheek shown. Case study: year-old woman presenting with multiple comorbidities leg shown.
Treatment Challenges Treatment strategies for skin cancers require careful consideration, and there are many challenges to overcome. Field Cancerization and Non-Melanoma Skin Cancer Field cancerization of the skin, by which large areas are affected by carcinogenic alternations, presents various therapeutic challenges Fig. Case study: Treatment of a patient who had received a kidney transplant leg shown. Case study: year-old woman with multiple basal cell carcinomas forehead shown. Table 1 Recommended topical treatments for actinic keratosis.
Basal Cell Carcinoma Though the majority of patients with BCC have a good prognosis, some patients develop a more complex, advanced disease with relatively few treatment options; indeed, no formal treatment algorithms are available. Malignant Melanoma Stage IV Treatment approaches for melanoma encompass two main strategies: targeted therapies e. The Sun: Friend or Foe? The Impact of Sunlight Exposure on Health The impact of sunlight exposure on health is subject to debate—here, we present our views on the available evidence.
Nitric Oxide and the Skin as a Mechanism Behind the Positive Effects of Sunlight It has been proposed that many of the documented beneficial effects of exposure to sunlight, particularly those related to cardiovascular health, involve mechanisms unrelated to melatonin, vitamin D, and exposure to UVB [ 62 ]. Table 2 What should the dermatologist know about HPV? Key questions and answers. Even though HPV infection is very common, very few patients will develop genital warts after infection How long can HPV infections last?
Yes, but we should distinguish between subclinical and latent infections we know very little about latent infections. No, what is important is the lesions, not the infection itself What should be the advice for patients who have been treated for genital warts, but who may still have subclinical infection?
The important thing to focus on is the lesions; screening for early lesions, and subsequent treatment Although there is no formal recommendation, HPV vaccination is advised among patients with a history of HPV-related lesions What advice should patients receive for their sexual partners concerning infection? The important thing to focus on is the lesions; screening for early lesions, and subsequent treatment Although there is no formal recommendation, HPV vaccination is advised among patients with a history of HPV-related lesions Is there any risk of HPV-related cancer in male patients?
And for their sexual partners? The current cost of HPV vaccines in national immunization programs has been reduced threefold Yes, the vaccine will not cure current active infections but will block new infections as well as auto-inoculated virions Is there a rationale for HPV vaccination in young males? Yes, very strong, and threefold: 1. To reduce transmission and circulation in the population 2. To protect themselves male burden is now considerable 3. For gender equality. Prevention Through Vaccination Strategies Three HPV vaccines are commercially available including a bivalent form against HPV types 16 and 18, a quadrivalent form against HPV types 6, 11, 16 and 18, and a 9-valent form against types 6, 11, 16, 18, 31, 33, 45, 52 and 58 [ 83 ].
