- The incidence and trends of it of the different subtypes of Non Melanoma Skin Cancers are analyzed.
- Observed and relative survival at 3, 5 and 10 years of Non Melanoma Skin Cancers are shown.
- The comparison of epidemiological topics between countries is discussed.
IntroductionWe present an epidemiological study focused on Non-melanoma skin cancers (NMSC), including squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), basal cell carcinoma (BCC), Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC), dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFS) and adnexal and skin appendages neoplasm (ASAN), a neoplasm understudied in cancer registries.Material and methodsWe analyze trends of incidence and survival of NMSC registered with the Cancer Registry of Girona, Spain.ResultsWe found 14389 cases of NMSC, accounting 3,474 SCC, 10729 BCC, 33 MCC, 61 DFSP and 71 ASAN. Incidence increased significantly in SCC and BCC with annual percentage of change of 1.6 and 1.5, respectively, but not in MCC, DFS or ASAN. Five-year relative survival for both sexes was 90.1% in SCC, 99.8% in BCC, 44.2% in MCC, 93.7% in DFS and 84% in ASAN.ConclusionsOur study confirms the increasing incidence and good survival of SCC and BCC and enhances knowledge on the epidemiology of the less incidental NMSC.
