İkinci Basamak Sağlık Kuruluşu Non-melanom Deri Kanseri Verileri: Milas YöresiAmaç: Bu çalışmada Milas yöresinde görülen non-melanoma deri kanseri (NMDK) hastalarından devlet hastanesine başvuranların demografik özellikleri, tümör lokalizasyonu ve histopatolojisi ile tümörlerin rekürrens sıklığı çalışıldı.Yöntemler: Çalışmada 2011-2014 yılları arasında; dermatoloji kliniğinde görülen 120 NMDK tanılı hastaların dosyaları retrospektif olarak incelendi. Hastaların demografik özellikleri, alkol ve sigara kullanımı, mesleği, Fitzpatrick deri tipi (FT), lezyonların lokalizasyonu, tümör histopatolojisi ile rekürrens sıklığı değerlendirilerek istatistiksel analiz yapıldı. Bulgular:Hastaların başvuru sırasındaki yaş ortalaması 65,2 olarak bulundu. Erkek ve kadın oranı eşitti ve bazal hücreli karsinom (BHK) hastalarında kadın sayısı, skuamöz hücreli kanser hastalarında erkek sayısı fazla idi. Lezyonların %88,3'ü baş-boyun bölgesinde görüldü. En yaygın lokalizasyon burun olup (%19,7) bunu göz ve kulak çevresi izledi. Hastaların %70,8'i FT 1 ve 2, %70 hasta açık renk göze sahipti. Beş hastada birden fazla lezyon vardı ve hastaların 12 tanesinde rekürrens görüldü. En sık karşılaşılan histopatolojik tip nodüler olup bunu infiltratif ve yüzeyel yayılan BHK izledi. Hastalarımızın neredeyse hepsi tarım ile aktif uğraşan bireylerdi.Sonuç:Üç yıllık takipte ilçenin ikinci basamak sağlık kuruluşunda tespit edilen olguların sıklığının ve rekürrensin yüksek olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Deri kanserleri sıklığının ve tedavisinin bu bölge için önemli bir sağlık problemi olduğunu ve koruyucu önlemler alınmazsa bunun artacağını düşünmekteyiz.AnahtarSözcükler: Non-melanom deri kanserleri, Milas, bazal hücreli karsinom, skuamoz hücreli karsinom Aim: We investigated demographic features, tumor location and histopathology as well as frequency of recurrence of nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC) in patients in Milas region.Methods:Medical files of 120 patients with the diagnosis of NMSC, who attended the dermatology department at Milas State Hospital between 2011 and 2014, were analyzed retrospectively. Statistical analysis was performed by evaluating demographic characteristics (age, gender, tumor initial age), alcohol consumption, smoking habits, occupation, Fitzpatrick skin type (FT), location of lesions, tumor histopathology and recurrence frequency. Results:The average age at admission was 65.2 years. Male/female ratio was equal and the number of females with basal cell carcinoma (BCC) was higher than that of males, while squamous cell cancer was more common in men. 88.3% of the lesions involved the head and neck region. The most common location was the nose (19.7%), followed by eye and ear region. 70.8% of patients had FT 1 and 2 and 70% had light eye color. There were more than one lesion in five patients and recurrence was observed in 15 of the patients. The most common histopathologic type was nodular, followed by infiltrative and superficially spreading BCC. Almost all of our patients were active farmers. Conclusion:During the three-year foll...

“…In our study, BCC incidence among patients with NMSC was 70% (n=84), which was consistent with the incidence in white Caucasians. SCC is the second most common skin cancer among white Caucasians, and constitutes 15% to 25% of all skin cancers (3,8,9). In our study, SCC covered 30% of the cases (n=36).…”

“…The pathogenesis of SCC is multifactorial, but excess UV exposure and having less skin pigmentation are the main factors [6]. In a study performed in İzmir, Turkey, the prevalence of SCC was found to be 26.6% among skin cancers other than MM [7]. In a study by Darjani et al [14] the SCC prevalence was reported to be 3.8%.…”

We sought to investigate the prevalence of skin tumors in Muğla, which has a Mediterranean climate and a high population of elderly people. This was a cross-sectional study conducted on patients, 65 years old and older, who consulted at our dermatology outpatient clinics between January 2014 and January 2015. Diagnoses of the patients were obtained and retrospectively evaluated from the electronic medical records of the hospital. Of 2297 geriatric patients, 50.8% were females and 49.2% were males. Of these patients, 12% had actinic keratosis, 5.4% had seborrheic keratosis, 2.1% had basal cell carcinoma, 0.8% had squamous cell carcinoma, and 0.1% had malignant melanoma. In patients <80 years old, the probability of actinic keratosis was 1.7 times more than that in patients ≥80 years old (p = 0.006). In addition, the probability of actinic keratosis was 1.7 times more in women than in men (p < 0.001). Among precancerous, benign and malignant skin tumors, actinic keratosis was the most common, followed by seborrheic keratosis, basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and malignant melanoma. Moreover, squamous cell carcinoma and basal cell carcinoma were more frequently observed in the advanced geriatric age group and early geriatric age group, respectively.

Özet AbstractObjective: We aimed to determine age, gender, localization area and types of skin cancer cases admitted to our hospital. Methods: A total of 338 patients diagnosed as malignant skin tumor that were referred to Pathology Department of Tokat Government Hospital from dermatology, plastic surgery and general surgery departments between the years of 2007 and 2011 were included in the study. Malignant skin tumors were classified as basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, malignant melanoma, basosquamous cell carcinoma and Kaposi's sarcoma. Results: In this study 338 patients (60.7% males, 39.3% females) were evaluated. Of the cases, 95% were older than 50 years and the mean age was 67±11 years. Of the 338 malign tumors; 224 (66.2%) were basal cell carcinoma, 106 (31.3%) were squamous cell carcinoma, 2 (0.5%) were basosquamous cell carcinoma, 5 (1.4%) were malignant melanoma and 1 (0.3%) was Kaposi's sarcoma. It was seen that the most common localization of skin tumors was head and neck region. Conclusion: In our study the most frequently seen skin cancer was basal cell carcinoma followed by squamous cell carcinoma, malignant melanoma, basosquamous cell carcinoma and Kaposi's sarcoma. The tumors were mostly seen in head and neck region and their frequencies were increased by age. Results of this study are consistent with the results of various studies conducted in our country and international literature.
