ABSTRACT
Despite the fact that the pathogenesis of cutaneous melanoma is shrouded in mystery, factors that have been neglected or unnoticed until now have come to the attention in recent years, and in all likelihood, they could also be pivotal. These factors, known as nitrosamines or NDSRIs, are characterized by high carcinogenic and mutagenic potency, and some of them have demonstrated these properties to human DNA as well. Unfortunately, these ingredients also turn up as contaminants in about 300 of the most widely distributed drugs worldwide. According to the most recent literature, some of these ingredients are also identified as potent photocarcinogens, as well as human carcinogens. The intake of these carcinogens in the context of polycontamination of polymedication, has been associated for years with the occurrence of melanomas. The need for cataloguing of nitrosamines , as well as their accurate labelling on drug packaging, would help to classify them even more accurately as carcinogens affecting human DNA. We present once again a patient , who developed nodular melanoma within the context of the intake of 3 potentially nitrosamine/ NDSRIs contaminated antihypertensive drugs (valsartan/ Hydrochlorothiazide/ bisoprolol). Pathogenetic aspects concerning drug-induced nitrosogenesis, photocarcinogenesis and oncopharmacogenesis of skin cancer are discussed. Nitrosogenesis' of Cancer as concept in the medical literature has been known for decades, but in relation to other forms of human cancer. Exogenously mediated drug-mediated nitrosogenesis is a logically conditioned and newly defined concept whose significance with respect to the clinical manifestation of skin cancer is only beginning to grow.
