Implication

Population-based registry study reveals rising basal cell carcinoma rates in a nationwide population, highlighting faster increases among women and aggressive tumor subtypes.

Key Points

Determine nationwide incidence rates and longitudinal trends of basal cell carcinoma across demographic groups and histological subtypes.
Conducted a nationwide population-based registry study using comprehensive cancer registry data in Sweden.
Basal cell carcinoma incidence rates were elevated and showed continuous upward trends over time across the entire population.
The rate of increase was noticeably more pronounced in female patients compared to males.
Aggressive histological subtypes of basal cell carcinoma demonstrated a faster rate of increase than less aggressive subtypes.
