It is often stated that persons of Celtic origin have an increased risk of skin cancer, but the evidence for this is almost exclusively anecdotal. We believe that the possibility of the Celts being at greater risk of skin cancer has important implications with regard to management in particular and in assisting our understanding of carcinogenesis in general. For these reasons we have reviewed all those studies implicating Celtic ancestry in the development of both malignant melanoma and nonmelanoma skin cancer.
人们常说，凯尔特血统的人患皮肤癌的风险更高，但几乎所有这方面的证据都只是传闻。我们认为，凯尔特人患皮肤癌风险更高的可能性，尤其在治疗方面以及帮助我们全面理解致癌过程方面，都具有重要意义。基于这些原因，我们回顾了所有那些将凯尔特血统与恶性黑色素瘤和非黑色素瘤皮肤癌发病相关联的研究。
