Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common cancer affecting humans. It almost has no tendency for metastasis; however it can be destructive to surrounding tissue. Patients with darker skin colors have lower risk of developing skin cancers and the clinical characteristics may differ from populations with lighter skin colors. . This is a retrospective clinical study (2003-2017). Data on age, gender, and location of tumor were collected and analyzed. . 335 cases were identified. Males tend to get BCC at a younger age than females. Face was the most common site in both males and females. Cheeks and nose were the most likely areas of the face to be involved. Scalp was the most common extrafacial site to be involved in males; however in females scalp was much less likely to be involved. . BCC is less common in populations with darker skin. Males were more affected and at an earlier age compared to females. Facial skin followed by scalp was the most common site affected. Skin phototype, cultural and religious dress type, and different sun exposure behavior may explain many of the clinical and demographic findings related to BCC in patients with darker skin tones.
基底细胞癌(BCC)是影响人类的最常见癌症。它几乎没有转移倾向;然而,它可能会对周围组织造成破坏。皮肤颜色较深的患者患皮肤癌的风险较低,其临床特征可能与皮肤颜色较浅的人群有所不同。这是一项回顾性临床研究(2003 - 2017年)。收集并分析了有关年龄、性别和肿瘤位置的数据。共识别出335例病例。男性患基底细胞癌的年龄往往比女性小。面部是男性和女性中最常见的发病部位。脸颊和鼻子是面部最易受累的区域。头皮是男性最常见的面部以外受累部位;然而,女性头皮受累的可能性要小得多。基底细胞癌在皮肤颜色较深的人群中不太常见。男性比女性受影响更大且发病年龄更早。面部皮肤其次是头皮是最常见的受累部位。皮肤光型、文化和宗教着装类型以及不同的日晒行为可能解释了许多与皮肤颜色较深的基底细胞癌患者相关的临床和人口统计学发现。
