  • Karcinom kože = Carcinoma of the skin
    Jančar, Boris
    The occurrence of the carcinoma of the skin has long been on the increase all over the world, whereas in Slovenia, after a considerable rise in the sixties and seventies, a recession was recorded. ... Ultraviolet rays are considered to be most crucial carcinogen, therefore solar keratosis is the most frequent precancerosis. Histologically, carcinoma of the skin may be categorized into two groups, basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. As in the clinical ground the distinction between the benign and malignant tumors as well as difference between squamous and basal cell carcinoma is fraught with difficulties; histological or cytological confirmation is obligatory. Our primary objective is to select the treatment with the least functional or easthetic consequences. Several treatment methods may be applied, among them the most frequent are surgery and radiotherapy. Both are equally successful, and total cure rate is in both cases 90 to 95 %. In the available literature, there are hardly any studies that deal with the comparison of diffeerent treatment methods applied for similar tumor types. Generally, basaloma is treated only locally, whereas in squamous cell carcinoma treatment, the possible growth of lesions should be taken into consideration. Currently, it is strongly recommended to take all possible preventive measures against exposure to the sun; as the atmospheric conditions are getting worse and worse, the incindende of the skin carcinoma is steadily increasing. The decay of the ozone layer in the atmosphere, which is,in effect, acting as a filter against ultraviolet rays will, in the decades to come, probably increase the incidence of the skin carcinoma. Currently, no rise in the incidence has been noted so far. The principal preventive measure is protection of the skin with clothes and lotion.
