In a retrospective follow-up study, 36 renal transplant recipients with, and 101 without, skin cancer, who had received their first transplant before January 1981 and who were still alive with a functioning graft on 1 August 1989, were assessed to determine the risk of non-melanoma skin cancer in relation to exposure to sunlight during childhood and adolescence. The contribution of the number of keratotic skin lesions to the skin cancer risk was also assessed. The estimated relative risks (odds ratios) of skin cancer in relation to exposure to sunlight and the presence of keratotic skin lesions were calculated by maximum likelihood estimation in a logistic model. The majority of skin cancers and keratotic skin lesions were confined to sun-exposed skin. After adjustment for possible confounding variables, the odds ratios of skin cancer for moderate and high cumulative life-time exposure to sunlight, respectively, compared with low exposure, were 2·4 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0·64-9·3) and 47·6 (95% CI 5·4-418). Exposure to sunlight before the age of 30 contributed more to the risk of developing skin cancer later in life than exposure after the age of 30. No association was found between cumulative life-time exposure to sunlight and the number of keratotic skin lesions. Nevertheless, these lesions behaved as a strong independent risk factor in the development of skin cancer. The adjusted odds ratio of skin cancer for 50-99 lesions compared with >50 lesions was 4·5 (95% CI 1·1-18·2); the adjusted odds ratio for ≥100 lesions compared with >50 lesions was 20·8 (95% CI 5·3-81·7). We conclude that exposure to sunlight before the age of 30 contributes more to the risk of skin cancer in renal transplant recipients than exposure after the age of 30. Cumulative life-time exposure to sunlight does not appear to be associated with an increased number of keratotic skin lesions in these patients. The preferential localization of such lesions on sun-exposed skin suggests a possible role of recently received exposure to sunlight in the development of these lesions. 相似文献

Increased risk of skin cancer associated with the presence of epidermodysplasia verruciformis human papillomavirus types in normal skin 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

BACKGROUND: Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are found in normal skin and in benign and malignant skin conditions. Epidermodysplasia verruciformis (EV) HPV types are those most plausibly linked to the development of squamous cell carcinomas of the skin. OBJECTIVES: To assess the risk of nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC) associated with the presence of EV HPV in normal skin in immunocompetent (IC) individuals and renal transplant recipients (RTRs). METHODS: Using a degenerate and nested polymerase chain reaction technique, HPV DNA was sought in 124 normal skin samples from sun-exposed and nonsun-exposed sites, from 39 IC individuals and 38 RTRs, both with and without NMSC. Data were analysed using the Mantel-Haenszel test and by logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: HPV DNA was detected in 58/67 (87%) and 20/57 (35%) samples from renal transplant and IC patients, respectively. There was no difference in either the prevalence or spectrum of HPV types found in sun-exposed and nonsun-exposed normal skin. However, there was significant association between NMSC and the presence of EV HPV DNA. Multivariate analysis provided an odds ratio of 6.41 (95% confidence interval 1.79-22.9) for the association of EV HPV DNA in normal skin (irrespective of site) and NMSC status, even after stratifying for patient group and adjusting for the clustering effect of multiple sampling. Conversely, there was no association between skin cancer status and the presence of cutaneous or mucosal HPV types in either sun-exposed or nonsun-exposed skin. CONCLUSIONS: HPV DNA is widespread in normal adult skin, particularly in transplant patients. In our study, the presence of EV but not cutaneous HPV DNA in normal skin was significantly associated with NMSC status and may prove to be of predictive value for skin cancer risk. These data provide reason to focus on EV HPV types as causal agents in skin cancer. 相似文献

High levels of ultraviolet B exposure increase the risk of non-melanoma skin cancer in psoralen and ultraviolet A-treated patients 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Sunlight and psoralen and ultraviolet A (PUVA) are risk factors for the development of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and, to a lesser extent, basal cell carcinoma (BCC). Ultraviolet B (UVB) therapy, used for the treatment of psoriasis, might also increase the risk of these tumors. We studied the relation of skin cancer incidence to UVB use among 1380 adult subjects enrolled in a long-term safety trial of PUVA therapy. We used negative binomial regression models to quantify the association between UVB and the development of non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC), controlling for known confounders. High UVB exposure (> or =300 treatments vs <300 treatments) was associated with a modest but significant increase in SCC (adjusted incidence rate ratio (IRR)=1.37, 95% confidence interval (CI)=1.03-1.83) and BCC (adjusted IRR=1.45, 95% CI=1.07-1.96) risk. Among patients with <100 PUVA treatments, high UVB exposure was significantly associated with the development of SCC (adjusted IRR=2.75, 95% CI=1.11-6.84) and BCC (adjusted IRR=3.00, 95% CI=1.30-6.91) on body sites typically exposed to UVB therapy but not on chronically sun-exposed sites typically covered during therapy. For adults with high UVB exposure levels, UVB confers a modest increase in NMSC risk, much less than that observed with PUVA. Therefore, UVB remains a relatively low-risk treatment for psoriasis. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: In several studies an increased risk for development of breast cancer, malignant lymphoma and neoplasms of the kidney as second primary cancers in patients with cutaneous melanomas was discussed. OBJECTIVES: To determine the risk for development of second primary neoplasms in patients with cutaneous melanomas. METHODS: A prospective study was performed between 1977 and 1992 to evaluate the occurrence of second primary malignancies in 4597 patients (2083 men, 2514 women) with invasive cutaneous melanomas, diagnosed and treated at the Department of Dermatology and Allergology, Ludwig-Maximilians-University, Munich, Germany. RESULTS: During a median follow-up of 7.2 years, 296 of 4597 patients (6.4%) developed one or more neoplasms at the time of or subsequent to the diagnosis of the first cutaneous melanoma. More than half of these patients developed one or more further melanomas (152, 3.3%). Cancers of the breast, prostate, colon, rectum and kidney occurred less frequently. Statistical calculations revealed a 33.8-fold increased risk for the development of a second melanoma in the entire group [relative risk 38.5 for men (95% CI, 30.4-48.1), 29.0 for women (95% CI, 22.0-37.5)]. Moreover, a significantly increased risk for the development of kidney carcinoma in men was found [relative risk 3.5 (95%, CI, 1.4-7.2)]. CONCLUSIONS: Thorough follow-up and skin examination in patients with cutaneous melanomas is recommended for early detection of other primary melanomas. Furthermore, ultrasound examinations routinely performed in melanoma patients for the detection of melanoma metastases may also be of value for early detection of kidney carcinomas in male patients. 相似文献

A retrospective study of 813 histological specimens reported as seborrhoeic keratoses included 43 (5.3%) associated with non-melanoma skin cancer. Intraepidermal carcinoma (squamous cell carcinoma in situ) was the most common of these (36). There were five basal cell carcinomas (one with intraepidermal carcinoma also) and two invasive squamous cell carcinomas. No melanomas were reported. Twenty-seven of the intraepidermal carcinomas appeared to arise within the seborrhoeic keratosis as did one of the invasive squamous cell carcinomas. Of these 28 lesions, the head was the most common site. Fourteen were clinically diagnosed as a non-melanoma skin cancer with only nine clinically felt to be a seborrhoeic keratosis. These lesions may represent malignant transformation within the seborrhoeic keratosis. Twelve specimens reported adjacent dual pathologies, with the trunk and limbs the most common sites. Seven were diagnosed clinically as a skin malignancy, whereas three were thought to be solar keratoses. Clinically, the remaining two were seborrhoeic keratoses. The origin of the malignancy in these cases is less obvious and may represent collision tumours. Three curette specimens could not be assessed for architecture. 相似文献

The X-ray repair cross-complementing groups 1 gene plays an important role in base excision repair. At least three common single nucleotide polymorphisms frequently occur in this gene (Arg399Gln, Arg194Trp and Arg280His). Recent studies reported that these polymorphisms were associated with not only risk of visceral malignancy but also that of skin cancer such as basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma, whereas the results of previous study vary among races. In this case-control study, we investigated whether these single nucleotide polymorphisms were associated with the risk of skin cancer in a Japanese population. The study population was composed of 197 patients with skin cancer (27 actinic keratoses, 47 basal cell carcinomas, 27 squamous cell carcinomas, 29 Bowen's diseases, 46 malignant melanomas and 21 extramammary Paget's diseases) and 93 control subjects. We genotyped two single nucleotide polymorphisms (Arg194Trp and Arg399Gln) using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragments length polymorphism analysis. We found a significantly increased risk for basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and extramammary Paget's disease associated with Arg194Trp [adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 2.347, 3.587, 3.741, 95 % confidence interval (CI) 1.02-5.39, 1.19-10.8, 1.15-12.2, respectively]. We also found a significantly decreased risk for basal cell carcinoma associated with Gln399Gln (AOR = 0.259, 95 % CI 0.07-0.96). Our data suggest that the Arg194Trp polymorphism could be associated with nonmelanoma skin cancer and extramammary Paget's disease risk in a Japanese population. 相似文献

Background:
The p53 gene is a critical molecular in the protection of cells from DNA damage due to Ultraviolet (UV) exposure, and TP53 mutation is very common in non-melanoma skin cancer.Objectives:
To assess the association between the TP53 Arg72Pro polymorphism and non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) risk.Methods:
We performed this meta–analysis with 13 case-control studies involving 3,520 cases and 3,587 controls.Results:
Our meta-analysis showed that TP53 Arg72Pro polymorphism was not associated with non-melanoma skin cancer susceptibility in overall population.(for Arg/Arg vs. Pro/Pro: OR 0.98, 95% CI 0.80-1.19; for Arg/Pro vs. Pro/Pro: OR 0.99, 95% CI 0.84-1.17; for the recessive model Arg/Arg vs. Arg/Pro + Pro/Pro: OR 1.10, 95% CI 0.89-1.35; for the dominant model Arg/Arg + Arg/Pro vs. Pro/Pro: OR 1.00, 95% CI 0.85-1.18). We also detected no effect of this polymorphism on any subtype of non-melanoma skin cancer, such as squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), and basal cell carcinoma (BCC). Furthermore, no significant association in any subgroup was detected in stratified analyses according to ethnicity. However, in the stratified analysis by sample collection resources, Arg/Arg carriers from tumor tissue subgroup had 3.42 times risk of cancer (95% CI, 1.19 to 9.84) as compared with the variant type Pro/Pro in NMSC.Conclusions:
TP53 Arg72Pro polymorphism may have little involvement in the pathogenesis of NMSC, regardless of type, including SCC, and BCC. 相似文献8.
BACKGROUND: Allograft recipients are at increased risk for skin cancer. The incidence of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma is 50-250 times higher than in the age-matched control population, and basal cell carcinoma is about 10 times more frequent. The incidence of Kaposi's sarcoma is increased 400 to 500 times over that in a control population of the same ethnic origin. However, the incidence of other types of cutaneous sarcoma in organ allograft recipients is largely unknown. CLINICAL OBSERVATION: Within a 2-year-period, we observed 2 patients with cutaneous malignant fibrous histiocytoma and 1 patient with atypical fibroxanthoma among a cohort of 642 renal transplant recipients. For comparison, the incidence for dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans which is the commonest type of cutaneous sarcoma, is 0.45/100,000 persons/year in the non-immunocompromised population. Our observation represents an incidence of 156/100,000/ year (95% confidence interval Cl 28-489/100,000/year) for cutaneous malignant fibrous histiocytoma and of 78/100,000/year (95% CI 4-368/ 100,000/year) for atypical fibroxanthoma. CONCLUSION: To our knowledge, this is the first report on an elevated incidence of cutaneous malignant fibrous histiocytoma and of atypical fibroxanthoma in renal transplant recipients. Future cohort studies on malignancies in organ allograft recipients should aim at defining this risk more exactly. 相似文献

Development of malignant tumours in chronic burn wounds or scars is extremely rare, but a frequently reported complication. Most of these tumours are squamous cell carcinoma and, more occasionally, basal cell carcinoma and malignant melanoma are reported. The interval between the initial burn and the diagnosis of the tumour is usually long; 20-30 years or more. A large number of case reports and small series of selected patients have been published. Only one epidemiological study has been performed recently, but it could not confirm any increased risk. We conducted a historical cohort study to assess the risk of cancer in Swedish patients with burn injuries. Using the national Inpatient Registry we identified 37,095 patients who had been hospitalized for burn injuries. This cohort was linked with the Swedish Cancer Registry for a virtually complete follow-up with regard to cancer. The mean follow-up time was 16.4 years (range >0-39). The risk of developing any form of cancer was slightly increased: standardized incidence ratio (SIR) 1.11 (95% confidence interval (CI) 1.06-1.16) based on 2227 patients with cancer. However, squamous cell carcinoma: SIR 0.88 (95% CI 0.70-1.09) and malignant melanoma: SIR 0.88 (95% CI 0.68-1.12) did not occur more often than expected. Also, in a subgroup of 12,783 patients who were followed for 20-39 years, no increased risk of skin cancer could be detected. This study does not support any casual association between burn injuries and a later risk of skin cancer. 相似文献

Cyclosporine increases the risk of skin and lymphoid tissue malignancies in organ transplant patients. A similar increase has been shown among psoriasis patients, but no data exist on the carcinogenic risk of cyclosporine monotherapy in skin diseases. We conducted a retrospective cohort study of 272 patients, all of whom had received at least one month of cyclosporine treatment. The cancer information on these patients was obtained from the Finnish Cancer Registry. The median follow-up time was 10.9 years and the median treatment time with cyclosporine was 8 months. We did not detect any increase in the risk of skin malignancies or lymphoma. The overall risk of cancer was almost identical to that expected in the general population (standardized incidence ratios (SIR) = 1.31, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.70-2.23). This study shows that short-term cyclosporine treatment is probably not related to subsequent malignancy. Since the CI of the SIR estimate was rather wide, larger studies are needed in the future. 相似文献

It has been suggested that trioxsalen bath and ultraviolet (UV) A (PUVA) is associated with a very low or no risk of non-melanoma skin cancer, but the numbers of patients in individual studies have been limited. In order to attain statistically relevant information about the cancer risk associated with trioxsalen bath PUVA, two follow-up studies were combined and the joined cancer incidence was analysed among 944 Swedish and Finnish patients with psoriasis. The mean follow-up time for skin cancer was 14.7 years. Standardized incidence ratios (SIR) were calculated as a ratio of observed and expected numbers of cases. The expected numbers of cases were based on the national cancer incidence rates in the respective countries. There was no excess of squamous cell skin carcinoma [SIR 1.1, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.2-3.2] or malignant melanoma (SIR 0.9, 95% CI 0.1-3.2) in the combined cohort. Basal cell skin carcinoma was not studied. The incidence of all non-cutaneous cancers was not increased (SIR 1.1, 95% CI 0.8-1.4). A threefold excess risk of squamous cell skin carcinoma after trioxsalen bath PUVA could therefore be excluded, which is a markedly lower risk than that associated with oral 8-methoxypsoralen PUVA. The result needs to be confirmed in a future follow-up, however, as the number of patients with high PUVA exposures was low. 相似文献

Bowen disease and risk of subsequent malignant neoplasms: a population-based cohort study of 1147 patients. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
OBJECTIVE: To address the long-standing question of whether patients with Bowen disease are at increased risk of internal malignant neoplasms. PATIENTS: A total of 1147 Danish patients diagnosed between 1978 and 1993 as having Bowen disease at nongenital sites were followed up for 6463 person-years for cancer occurrence up to 16 years after the skin lesion. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Standardized incidence ratios (SIRs)--the ratios of observed-to-expected numbers of cancer--served as measures of relative risk. RESULTS: The observed number of noncutaneous cancers occurring in the cohort (n = 115) was close to expected (n = 103.0) (SIR = 1.1; 95% confidence interval, [CI], 0.9-1.3). However, nonmelanoma skin cancer (SIR = 4.3; 95% CI, 3.5-5.4; n = 83), lip cancer (SIR = 8.2; 95% CI, 2.6-19.1; n = 5), and, among men, leukemia (SIR = 3.2; 95% CI, 1.04-7.5; n = 5) occurred in excess. CONCLUSIONS: Patients with Bowen disease do not appear to constitutionally be at any unusually high general cancer risk. The increased risk of invasive skin and lip cancers is likely due to the common risk factor of UV light. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV8) is considered as the infectious cofactor involved in the pathogenesis of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS). Its seroprevalence and modes of transmission in the general population are still undetermined. OBJECTIVES: We aimed to estimate the prevalence of HHV8 infection in a population at low risk for sexually transmitted diseases. METHODS: We conducted a seroepidemiological survey on randomly selected individuals attending the dermatology department of a teaching hospital in Rome. Of 257 patients, 248 had their blood analysed for anti-HHV8 antibodies and 201 completed a standardized interview. Serological analysis was performed by an immunofluorescence assay able to detect antilytic antibodies. RESULTS: We found an overall seroprevalence of 15.7% (95% confidence interval, CI 11.4-20.9%), similar in men and women (15.1% vs. 16.3%) and higher at older ages. Seropositivity was not related to sexual habits, while it was significantly associated with a history of hepatitis (seroprevalence 34.6%, adjusted odds ratio, OR 4.08, 95% CI 1.52-11.00) and with a diagnosis of non-melanoma skin cancer (42.9%, OR 4.20, 95% CI 1.26-14.02) or atypical naevi (35.3%, OR 6.21, 95% CI 1.85-20.86). CONCLUSIONS: Our data suggest that a non-sexual mode of transmission of HHV8 infection is plausible in an Italian population at low risk for sexually transmitted diseases and that other factors, besides differences in prevalence of HHV8 infection, may be involved in the epidemiology of classical KS. The unexpectedly high seropositivity rates in subjects with non-melanoma skin cancer and atypical naevi should be viewed with caution and require confirmation. 相似文献

An audit of the completeness of non-melanoma skin cancer registration in Greater Glasgow 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Summary The incidence of basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma (non-melanoma skin cancer) is increasing in the U.K., and the importance of this has been recognized in the ' Health of th Nation ' target of halting the annual increase in the incidence of skin cancer by the year 2005. An accurate assessment of incidence is necessary both in meeting this target and in planning skin cancer services. We have examined the ways in which basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma are diagnosed and treated in Greater Glasgow and have determined how many of these tumours are recorded by the West of Scotland Cancer Registry. Our results show that there is under-registration of both basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. Overall, 39 of 127 basal cell carcinomas (31%; 95% confidence interval [CI] 23–39%) and 11 of 25 squamous cell carcinomas (44%; CI 26–63%) were not registered by the cancer registry. We also showed that dermatologists rarely treat clinically suspicious tumours without obtaining pathological proof of the diagnosis. Accurate data collection by selected representative cancer registries is suggested as a possible solution. 相似文献

Background The relationship between cutaneous malignancies and successive primary cancers has been studied since several years, but it still remains controversial. Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the excess risk of multiple primary cancer among the population of Umbria, Italy, that survived a skin cancer. Methods The data registered in the Umbrian Population Cancer Registry from 1994 to 2006 were collected, recorded, and analysed in accordance to the standard methods recommended for cancer registries. Among skin cancer patients, those with multiple cutaneous and non-cutaneous cancers were selected. Only sites with a frequency of more than five cases were considered. The expected number of cases was obtained from indirect standardization with regional incidence rates in several sites that incurred in the overall period. The significance of the observed/expected ratios and the corresponding 95% CI were based on the Poisson distribution. Results In men, a significant standardized incidence ratio (SIR) was found for melanoma (2.21), non-melanoma skin cancers (1.86), Hodgkin's (4.95) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (1.82), and tongue/mouth cancer (2.47). In women, melanoma, non-melanoma skin and breast cancer showed a significant high SIRs (4.13, 1.55 and 1.28 respectively). All other cancers showed a non-significant SIR. Considering all sites combined and all sites except skin cancers, the analysis showed a significant excess in men, whereas a significant risk was observed in women only when also skin cancers were considered. Conclusions Data from the whole of Umbrian population revealed that skin cancer patients experience marked excess risk of further primary cancers. The main risk in both genders is skin melanoma and other skin cancers. The excess of lymphomas and tongue/mouth cancers is also significant in men, and breast cancer in women. These observations prompt us to include a screening for these cancers in the follow-up of our patients surviving a skin malignancy. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To assess the risk of skin cancer and other cancers among patients with atopic dermatitis. DESIGN: Register-based retrospective cohort study. SETTING: Sweden.Patients A total of 15 666 hospitalized patients identified in the national Inpatient Register as having discharge diagnoses of atopic dermatitis between January 1, 1965, and December 31, 1999.Interventions The National Swedish Cancer Register coded malignant neoplasms during the entire period of study. Follow-up time was calculated from the date of entry in the cohort until the occurrence of a first cancer diagnosis, emigration, death, or the end of the observation period, whichever occurred first. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Follow-up by means of record linkages to several nationwide registers, among them the National Swedish Cancer Register. Standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) (the ratios of numbers of observed patients with cancer to expected numbers of incident cases of cancer) estimated the risk of developing cancer relative to the risks in the age-, sex-, and calendar year- matched general Swedish population. RESULTS: After excluding the first year of follow-up, the risk of developing any cancer was increased by 13% (95% confidence interval [CI] of SIR, 1.01-1.25, based on 311 observed patients with cancer). Excess risks were observed for cancers of the esophagus (SIR, 3.5; 95% CI, 1.3-7.7; 6 patients), pancreas (SIR, 1.9; 95% CI, 1.0-3.4; 11 patients), brain (SIR, 1.6; 95% CI, 1.1-2.4; 27 patients), and lung (SIR, 2.0; 95% CI, 1.3-2.8; 31 patients) and for lymphoma (SIR, 2.0; 95% CI, 1.4-2.9; 29 patients). There was a nonsignificant 50% excess risk for nonmelanoma skin cancer (SIR, 1.5; 95% CI, 0.8-2.6; 12 patients), seemingly confined to men and to the first 10 years of follow-up. Malignant melanoma did not occur more often than expected. CONCLUSIONS: The observed risk elevations, all of borderline statistical significance, should be interpreted cautiously. We could not control for possible confounding by cases of cancer caused by smoking, and the combination of multiple significance testing and few observed patients may have generated chance findings. 相似文献

In treatment of severe atopic dermatitis, drugs with carcinogenic potentials are used to manage the disease. We therefore analyzed whether patients having severe atopic eczema had an increased cancer risk. The study population included all individuals hospitalized in Denmark with a primary diagnosis of atopic dermatitis during 1977-1996. Follow-up was conducted in 1996 in the Danish Cancer Register. A total of 6275 persons were included. Among 2030 adult patients, an increased risk of cancer was observed, standard morbidity ratio (SMR)=1.5 (95% CI: 1.2-1.9). Half the excess cases of cancer was keratinocyte carcinomas of the skin diagnosed within the first 9 y of follow-up, SMR=2.4 (95% CI: 1.4-3.9). For men, SMR=2.7 (95%CI: 1.2-5.4). In conclusion, earlier hospitalized adult atopic dermatitis patients had an increased risk of cancer. Half the excess cases of cancer were keratinocyte carcinomas. This may be a result of a detection bias or due to the carcinogenic potentials of some of the therapies of severe atopic dermatitis. 相似文献

Individuals with a personal history of non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) are known to have an increased risk of subsequent cancers. However, most of the studies regarding this fact were done on Caucasian populations. We investigated whether Korean patients with NMSC have an increased risk of developing second cancers compared to the general Korean population. Five hundred and thirty-two patients diagnosed with NMSC at the Department of Dermatology of Yonsei University Health System from 1999 to 2008 were assessed for development of second cancers. The overall second cancer incidence was increased among patients diagnosed with NMSC compared with the general population in Korea: 37 second cancer total (standardized incidence ratio [SIR] 1.38, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.10-1.90); 23 second cancers in males (SIR 4.24, 95% CI 2.69-6.36); and 14 second cancers in females (SIR 2.28, 95% CI 1.25-3.83). There were significantly increased incidence ratios for NMSC (eight second cancers [SIR 9.52, 95% CI 4.11-18.77]), bladder cancer (four second cancers [SIR 4.21, 95% CI 1.15-10.78]) and nasopharyngeal cancer (one second cancer [SIR 20.00, 95% CI: 1.51-25.33]). Korean patients diagnosed with NMSC had more second cancers, particularly other skin cancers. This study provides additional evidence that NMSC may be a clinically significant and substantial risk factor for second cancers even in a Korean population, in which the incidence of NMSC is much lower than Caucasians. 相似文献

Human papillomaviruses infect the squamous epithelia of the skin and cause warts, and are occasionally found in squamous cell carcinomas. Since cell-mediated immunity plays a crucial role in the control of HPV-infections, organ transplant recipients, unable to mount an adequate T-helper 1 cell-mediated immune surveillance, frequently develop widespread and resistant induced warts. Skin tumors, especially squamous cell carcinomas, are the most common post-transplantation neoplasm. Warts, actinic keratoses and invasive squamous cell carcinomas are known to develop at the same time in the areas. The role of HPV in the development of invasive squamous cell carcinoma under immunosuppression, remains to be elucidated in respect to common risk factors and increased numbers of warts potentially indentifing patients at increased risk for carcinoma. We prospectively studied 1690 organ transplant recipients in the dermatology clinic at the Charité University Hospital in Berlin, to evaluate risk factors being involved in the development of HPV-induced warts and to assess a potential association of with the development of non-melanoma skin cancers in this population. The cumulative incidence of warts steadily increased throughout the post-transplant years. The presence of more than 10 verrucae was associated with the development of actinic keratoses, invasive squamous cell carcinoma and basal cell carcinoma. This study shows clear evidence that certain risk factors of skin carcinogenesis in organ transplant recipient such as increased age at transplantation, a high dose of immunosuppression related to a specific type of graft and use of azathioprine or cyclosporine are strongly associated with an increased incidence of warts. Furthermore, HPV-induced verrucae vulgares could be used as a potential predictor for the development of coincidental non melanoma skin cancer in organ transplant recipients and therefore could serve as an early identification marker of skin cancer high-risk patients. The challenging management of warts in organ transplantation patients is reviewed. 相似文献
