  • 摘要:Incidence rate of skin tumours, both, non-melanoma and melanoma, is increasing nowadays. Various etiological factors are of relevance for the occurrence of the diseases. The solar radiation, as well, long term exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation, have the greatest impact on development of these skin tumours. Non-melanoma skin tumours, Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC) and Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC), are the most common skin tumours in humans, and usually develop on the chronically photo-exposed areas. As for the Malignant Melanoma (MM), one of the most aggressive skin tumours, the exposure to solar radiation also plays an important role. This study investigates the correlation between the skin tumours and UV radiation in the area of West Herzegovina, on the sample of 1676 patients. It presents the occurrence of skin tumours in the period from 1997 to 2003. The study investigates the incidence and the risk factors separately for every skin tumour which can be etiologically related to the occurrence of skin tumours and UV radiation: occupation, exposure to UV radiation, skin type, and family history on malignan tumours within the patient’s family. The exact incidence rate of non-melanoma and melanoma skin tumours in Bosnia and Herzegovina is still unknown, for the reason that the united National Cancer Register does not exist yet.
