چکیده انگلیسی
The aim of this study was to provide insights into the descriptive epidemiology of invasive skin melanoma in Lithuania by analyzing population-based incidence (1978-2002) and mortality (1990-2002) time trends, and relative survival based on 3485 skin melanoma. We calculated age-standardized incidence and mortality rates (cases per 100,000) using the European Standard Population and calculated period estimates of relative survival. The incidence rates increased from 1978 (men: 1.7, women: 2.3) to 2002 (men: 5.0, women: 7.0). The incidence increase over time is accompanied by cohort effects among both men and women. Mortality rates increased from 1990 (men: 1.2, women: 1.7) to 2002 (men: 2.3, women: 2.2). Relative 5-year survival rates among men were 10% lower than among women. The overall difference in survival was mainly due to a more favourable survival among women aged 60-74 years. Overall prognosis was less favourable among men, most likely due to diagnoses at later stages.
