[Prevention of skin cancers]
Abstract
Skin cancer should be the ideal cancer for prevention. The environmental risk factors subject to modification by primary prevention are known for melanoma and cutaneous carcinoma. Some precursors have been identified, opening the possibility of secondary prevention. In addition, skin cancers are easily visualised, facilitating diagnosis.
