“…De nombreuses études ont montré l'association entre l'utilisation de cabines de bronzage et le risque de cancer de la peau [2,[7][8][9]. Depuis 2009, les cabines de bronzage sont reconnues cancérigènes pour l'Homme par l'OMS (Organisation mondiale de la santé) au même niveau que le tabac et l'arsenic (catégorie 1) [10,11].…”

“…64 Yet pediatric surveys do not indicate a high rate of this practice, despite evidence that pediatricians consider counseling on indoor tanning important 65 and that it is likely to be effective. 59,60 Thus, although the medical community, including the American Academy of Pediatrics, 14 has urged the reduction of exposure to indoor tanning among minors, opportunities remain for pediatricians to directly advise their patients and to discourage caregivers from providing consent for minors. In conclusion, our findings suggest that teens and young adults who seek indoor tanning may be especially vulnerable to developing BCC at a young age.…”

WHAT'S KNOWN ON THIS SUBJECT: Indoor tanning has gained widespread popularity among adolescents and young adults. Incidence rates of early-onset basal cell carcinoma also appear to be rising. Scant evidence exists on the impacts of early exposure and whether it leads to early occurrence of this malignancy. WHAT THIS STUDY ADDS:In a US population-based study, indoor tanning was associated with an elevated risk of basal cell carcinomas occurring at or before the age of 50 years, with an increasing trend in risk with younger age at exposure among adolescents and young adults. abstract OBJECTIVE: Indoor tanning with UV radiation-emitting lamps is common among adolescents and young adults. Rising incidence rates of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) have been reported for the United States and elsewhere, particularly among those diagnosed at younger ages. Recent epidemiologic studies have raised concerns that indoor tanning may be contributing to early occurrence of BCC, and younger people may be especially vulnerable to cancer risk associated with this exposure. Therefore, we sought to address these issues in a population-based case-control study from New Hampshire. METHODS:Data on indoor tanning were obtained on 657 cases of BCC and 452 controls #50 years of age.RESULTS: Early-onset BCC was related to indoor tanning, with an adjusted odds ratio (OR) of 1.6 (95% confidence interval, 1.3-2.1). The strongest association was observed for first exposure as an adolescent or young adult, with a 10% increase in the OR with each age younger at first exposure (OR per year of age #23 = 1.1; 95% confidence interval, 1.0-1.2). Associations were present for each type of device examined (ie, sunlamps, tanning beds, and tanning booths). CONCLUSIONS:Our findings suggest early exposure to indoor tanning increases the risk of early development of BCC. They also underscore the importance of counseling adolescents and young adults about the risks of indoor tanning and for discouraging parents from consenting minors to this practice.
