Abstract
Incidence rates for all skin cancers are increasing. The objective of this study is to review data on melanoma and nonmelanoma skin cancer from Wilford Hall Medical Center and identify and compare trends to published data. Records were reviewed by computer search of pathology records from 1986 to 1993, and analysis by total numbers diagnosed, age distribution, and site are described. Overall, our data agree with published material. We did not show an increased frequency of basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, or melanoma during this period.
