Risk of a Second Skin Cancer in a Cohort of Patients With Nonmelanoma Skin Cancer -Basal Cell Carcinoma or Squamous Cell Carcinoma-Treated With Mohs Micrographic Surgery: A National Prospective Cohort Study. / Riesgo de aparición de segundas neoplasias cutáneas en una cohorte de pacientes diagnosticados de carcinoma queratinocítico (carcinoma basocelular y carcinoma epidermoide) tratados con cirugía de Mohs. Estudio de cohortes prospectivo nacional.

OBJECTIVE: Patients with nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC)-ie, basal cell carcinoma (BCC) or squamous cell carcinoma (SCC)-have an increased risk of developing a second skin cancer. The aim of this study was to describe the frequency, incidence per 1000 person-years, and predictors of a second skin cancer in a cohort of patients with NMSC treated with Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS). MATERIAL AND METHODS: Prospective study of a national cohort of patients with NMSC who underwent MMS at 22 Spanish hospitals between July 2013 and February 2020; case data were recorded in the REGESMOHS registry. The study variables included demographic characteristics, frequency and incidence per 1000 person-years of second skin cancers diagnosed during the study period, and risk factors identified using mixed-effects logistic regression. RESULTS: We analyzed data for 4768 patients who underwent MMS; 4397 (92%) had BCC and 371 (8%) had SCC. Mean follow-up was 2.4 years. Overall, 1201 patients (25%) developed a second skin cancer during follow-up; 1013 of the tumors were BCCs (21%), 154 were SCCs (3%), and 20 were melanomas (0.4%). The incidence was 107 per 1000 person-years (95% CI, 101-113) for any cancer, 90 per 1000 person-years (95% CI, 85-96) for BCC, 14 (95% CI, 12-16) per 1000 person-years for SCC, and 2 (95% CI, 1-3) per 1000 person-years for melanoma. More men than women developed a subsequent skin cancer (738 [61%] vs 463 [39%]). The main risk factors were a history of multiple tumors before diagnosis (relative risk [RR], 4.6; 95% CI, 2.9-7.1), immunosuppression (RR, 2.1; 95% CI, 1.4-3.1), and male sex (RR, 1.6; 95% CI, 1.4-1.9). CONCLUSION: Patients have an increased risk of developing a second tumor after MMS treatment of NMSC. Risk factors are a history of multiple tumors at diagnosis, immunosuppression, and male sex.

Nevo de Spitz y otros tumores spitzoides en la infancia. Parte 1: aspectos clínicos, histológicos e inmunohistoquímicos / Spitz Nevus and Other Spitzoid Tumors in Children-Part 1: Clinical, Histopathologic, and Immunohistochemical Features

El nevo de Spitz es una neoplasia melanocítica de células epitelioides o fusiformes que suele aparecer en la infancia. Su naturaleza es benigna, aunque en ocasiones puede mostrar unas características difíciles de distinguir del melanoma. En las últimas décadas se han clasificado las neoplasias melanocíticas spitzoides en 3tipos: nevus de Spitz, tumor de Spitz atípico y melanoma spitzoide. El tumor de Spitz atípico hace referencia a las neoplasias melanocíticas spitzoides que tienen unas características histopatológicas atípicas insuficientes para realizar el diagnóstico de melanoma y cuyo potencial maligno, actualmente, es incierto. Nuestro objetivo es revisar los aspectos clínicos, dermatoscópicos, histopatológicos e inmunohistoquímicos de este conjunto de tumores

A Spitz nevus is a melanocytic neoplasm of epithelioid and/or spindle cells that usually appears in childhood. These lesions are by nature benign, but their features can sometimes make them difficult to distinguish from melanomas. Spitzoid melanocytic lesions have been grouped into 3 types in recent decades: Spitz nevi, atypical Spitz tumors, and spitzoid melanomas. Atypical Spitz tumors are spitzoid melanocytic proliferations that have atypical histopathologic features that are insufficient to support a diagnosis of melanoma. The malignant potential of these lesions is at present uncertain. This review examines the clinical, dermoscopic, and histopathologic features of this group of lesions

Nevo de Spitz y otros tumores spitzoides en la infancia. Parte 2: características citogenéticas y moleculares. Pronóstico y tratamiento / Spitz Nevus and Other Spitzoid Tumors in Children. Part 2: Cytogenetic and Molecular Features. Prognosis and Treatment

Las neoplasias melanocíticas con morfología spitzoide (nevo de Spitz, tumor de Spitz atípico y melanoma spitzoide) abarcan un espectro desde lesiones benignas a malignas. Debido al potencial maligno incierto de los tumores de Spitz atípicos, el abordaje terapéutico ha generado durante años controversia. El desarrollo de nuevas técnicas moleculares parece prometedor y ha contribuido a una mejor predicción del comportamiento biológico de los tumores de Spitz. Nuestro objetivo es revisar las características citogenéticas de los tumores de Spitz, el pronóstico y actualizar las últimas recomendaciones de manejo

Melanocytic neoplasms with spitzoid morphology (Spitz nevi, atypical Spitz tumors, and spitzoid melanomas) may be benign or malignant. Because the malignant potential of atypical Spitz tumors is uncertain, the proper therapeutic approach has been much debated over the years. Promising new techniques for molecular analysis have enabled better predictions of the biological behavior of these tumors. We review their cytogenetic features and prognosis and also provide an update of the most recent recommendations for management
