Methods

KC were identified among Childhood Cancer Survivor Study participants, a cohort of five-year cancer survivors diagnosed <21 years of age between 1970-1999 in North America. Cumulative incidence was estimated, and multivariable models assessed relative rates of KC associated with survivor and treatment characteristics. Results: Among 25,658 participants, 1,446 developed 5,363 KC (93.5% basal cell carcinoma, 6.7% squamous cell carcinoma; mean age 37.0 years (range 7.3-67.4), mean latency 25.7 years; 95.3% White and 88.4% with radiotherapy [RT]).

Mean lesion count was 3.7 with 26.1% experiencing 4. RT imparted a 4.5-fold increase in the rate of any KC and 9.4-fold increase in the rate of 4 KC. Allogeneic and autologous hematopoietic cell transplant were associated with a 3.4- and 2.3-fold increased rate of KC, respectively.
