这项基于人群的研究的目的是评估美国非黑色素瘤皮肤癌（NMSC）死亡率的趋势。特别强调的是生殖器皮肤上产生的恶性肿瘤亚组。从1969年到2000年，美国有近75，000人死于NMSC。从1969年到2000年，非生殖器皮肤NMSC的年龄调整后的美国死亡率为0.69/ 10（5）/年;男性的死亡率是女性的两倍。白色男子的死亡率是黑人男子的两倍;妇女的死亡率也是黑人男子的两倍，但倍数较小。生殖器皮肤（阴茎、阴囊、外阴）恶性肿瘤的相应死亡率女性（0.54）高于男性（0.30）。与非生殖器NMSC相比，黑人男性的死亡率是白色男性的两倍;然而，白色和黑人女性的死亡率相似。这些结果表明，可以更加重视降低生殖器NMSC的死亡率，同时继续强调减少过度的阳光照射。
The purpose of this population- based study was to assess trends in mortality rates for nonmelanoma skin cancer ( NMSC) in the United States. Particular emphasis was placed on the subgroup of malignancies arising on genital skin. Nearly 75,000 deaths in the United States were attributed to NMSC from 1969 to 2000. The age-adjusted US mortality rate for NMSC arising on nongenital skin from 1969 to 2000 was 0.69/ 10 (5)/ year; the rate among men was twice that among women. Mortality rates among white men exceeded that of black men by a factor of two; the same was observed among women, but by a smaller multiple. Corresponding mortality rates for malignancies arising from genital skin ( penis, scrotum, vulva) were higher in women ( 0.54) than in men ( 0.30). In contrast to nongenital NMSC, mortality rates among black men were twice that of white men; however, rates for white and black women were similar. These results suggest that greater emphasis could be placed on reducing mortality from genital NMSC while continuing to stress reduction of excess sun exposure.
