Skin Cancer on the Rise...
Dear Reader,
By now you've heard that skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the U.S., and have probably also heard (maybe ignored) warnings about the sun. Now might be a good time to listen.
A paper on a new study that appears in the March 2010 issue of Archives of Dermatology , the skin cancer theme issue, finds that nonmelanoma skin cancers appear to be on the rise in the U.S.
Figures from 1992-2006 have cases of nonmelanoma skin cancer in the Medicare population rising an average of 4.2% a year. It's important to understand that most of the cases of nonmelanoma skin cancer diagnosed in the U.S. each year are considered to be related to sun exposure.
You've probably heard of the most deadly form of skin cancer, melanoma, but there are other, less dangerous but still serious, forms as well. These include basal cell carcinoma, often in patients with light hair, light eyes and fair complexions. Squamous cell carcinoma is another form also generally found on the skin of Caucasian people, typically appearing as nodules on the skin along the rim of the ear, face, mouth and lips.
According to the research, in 2006, an estimated 3.5 million nonmelanoma skin cancers were diagnosed in the United States.
Almost 2.1 million Americans were treated for the disease that year alone. "These data give the most complete evaluation to date of the under recognized epidemic of skin cancer in the United States," the authors point out. The team was attempting to put a number to the incidence of nonmelanoma skin cancer, typically not reported in cancer registries according to the researchers, suggesting that the actual incidence of this form of cancer isn't known.
To arrive at their estimate, lead researcher Howard Rogers, MD, Ph.D., a dermatologist from Norwish Connecticut and his colleagues looked at Medicare (our government backed insurance for seniors) databases as well as reviewing a national survey based on doctor office visits.
"The data presented herein from national databases indicate that the incidence of skin cancer in the United States has substantially increased from 1992 to 2006 and is now about double the last published estimate from 1994," the study authors write.
Sobering numbers.
You should know the research does have some pretty significant limitations. How it estimated the incidence of these forms of skin cancer is one. What's more, the experts made the assumption that one treatment equaled one cancer incidence.
The team counters by pointing out that they used nationally representative databases that give a much higher figure than any earlier estimates. Despite everything, the estimate of nonmelanoma skin cancers the researchers put out there is better than anything we have now.
The take home message, according to those involved with the study, is that nonmelanoma skin cancer is "underrecognized".
When it comes to protecting from any form of skin cancer, it's important to understand how to shield yourself from the dangerous UV (ultraviolet) rays of the sun, without having to forgo time outside. These rays are around even on cloudy or hazy days, and can reflect off surfaces like water, cement, snow and sand.

Skin Cancer on the Rise... Continued...
To protect your skin as you head out on spring break, or during the warm, summer
months to come, you'll want to...
- Use sunscreen with sun protective factor (SPF) of 15 or higher, and look for
both UVA and UVB protection. Apply before you go out, and be sure to put a thick,
even layer on all skin surfaces. Reapply every two hours, or after swimming or
exercise that makes you sweat.
- Wear protective clothing (loose, long sleeve shirts and pants made of lightly
woven fabric) to shield exposed skin. A hat with a wide brim all the way around
will shade your face, ears and neck, as well as the top of your head. Canvas
is a better choice than straw.
- Seek shade during the heat of the day - 10: AM to 4:00 PM. An umbrella, tree
or other shelter will offer great relief from the sun.
- Choose sunglasses that wrap around your face and block up to 100% of both UVA
and UVB rays. Most sunglasses sold in the U.S., no matter the price, meet this
standard.
To your good health,
Kirsten Whittaker
