Skin cancer includes two large groups: cutaneous melanoma and nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC).
At the start of the 21st Century, melanoma remains a potentially fatal malignancy, accounting for 75% of all deaths from skin cancer. At a time when the incidence of many tumour types is decreasing, melanoma incidence continues to increase.
