Generally, it is known that men are affected more frequently by nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC) than women. The aim of our study was to investigate the effect of sex on the characteristics of NMSCs of the pinna at the population that our center serves and to compare it with the international data.
We analyzed retrospectively the data of 225 patients with NMSC of the pinna. Sex-specific differences were investigated for basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) subgroups.
The ratio of BCC to cSCC was determined in male patients at 1:1.3, in contrast in females it was identified at 4:1 (P = .001).
In our study, a new aspect of the sex-dependent distribution of cSCC and BCC of the pinna was demonstrated. Women are affected four times more frequently by BCC than by cSCC, whereas in men this ratio is approximately equal.
一般来说,男性患非黑素瘤皮肤癌(NMSC)比女性更常见。我们研究的目的是调查性别对我们中心服务人群的耳廓 NMSC 特征的影响,并将其与国际数据进行比较。
我们回顾性分析了 225 例耳廓 NMSC 患者的数据。对基底细胞癌(BCC)和皮肤鳞状细胞癌(cSCC)亚组进行了性别特异性差异研究。
男性患者的 BCC 与 cSCC 之比为 1:1.3,而女性患者的这一比例为 4:1(P =.001)。
在我们的研究中,展示了耳廓 cSCC 和 BCC 性别依赖性分布的一个新方面。女性患 BCC 的频率是 cSCC 的四倍,而男性的这一比例大致相等。
