The incidence of cutaneous melanoma is rising fast, and its prevalence has doubled in the past 3 decades. Detailed local epidemiological information is essential for informing community-based prevention strategies and optimizing hospital resources.
We included all patients diagnosed with cutaneous melanoma at Hospital Universitario Araba in the Basque province of Álava, Spain, between January 2015 and December 2018. We described clinical and pathologic characteristics and calculated annual incidence rates adjusted to the European standard population.
A total of 242 new cases of melanoma were diagnosed between 2015 and 2018. The age-standardized annual incidence rose from 12.92 cases per 100 000 population in 2015 to 18.30 cases per 100 000 population in 2018.
The incidence of melanoma in our area is higher than that reported for Spanish series in 2017 and 2018. Lentigo maligna accounted for a high proportion of cases and was the second largest histologic subgroup.
皮肤黑色素瘤的发病率正在迅速上升，其患病率在过去30年中翻了一番。详细的当地流行病学信息对于制定基于社区的预防策略和优化医院资源至关重要。
我们纳入了2015年1月至2018年12月期间在西班牙阿拉瓦省巴斯克地区的阿拉巴大学医院被诊断为皮肤黑色素瘤的所有患者。我们描述了临床和病理特征，并计算了根据欧洲标准人群调整后的年发病率。
2015年至2018年期间共诊断出242例新的黑色素瘤病例。年龄标准化年发病率从2015年的每10万人口12.92例上升至2018年的每10万人口18.30例。
我们地区黑色素瘤的发病率高于2017年和2018年西班牙系列报道的发病率。恶性雀斑痣占病例的比例很高，是第二大组织学亚组。
