Abstract

A clinical study was made on 148 cases of cutaneous malignant tumors that visited the Department of Dermatology at Seoul National University Hospital during a 11-year period from 1973 to 1983. The results were summarized as follows: 1) The incidence of cutaneous malignant tumors in the total number of outpatients visiting the Department of Derrnatology was 0. 025g. 2) There were 90 cases of male (60. 8p,) and 58 cases of female (39. 2g). The ratio of male to female was l. 55: l. Among the 148 cases of cutaneous malignant tumors, the most frequently observed type was basal cell carcinoma, 58 cases (3j.2 p:). The next most frequent types were squamous cell carcinoma, 42 cases(28. 4g) and malignant melanoma, ]1 cases (7. 4g). We described the clinical characteristics of the patients with basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and malignant melanoma that have been observed.
