“…1,3-6,11,14-17,19,21,22 The age group mostly affected by BCC was 70-79 years, similar to the findings of Bastiaens et al 3 The increasing incidence of BCC in young individuals has been emphasized; 8,11 however, the mean age is still high, probably because of the cumulative action of ultraviolet light throughout life and of reduction of the ozone layer. 4,7,8 In this study, BCC affected mostly women.…”

“…Some authors also consider prolonged and continuous sun exposure, related or not to occupational activities, responsible for the high incidence of BCC. 3,8,10,11,23 Contrary to this theory, English et al 15 did not observe any correlation between BCC and daily sun exposure for working-related activities, differently from what happens with squamous cell carcinoma. According to these authors, rural workers subject to sustained sun exposure protected themselves wearing clothes and hats whereas those under intermittent sun exposure, for instance, on weekends, spent more time under the sun and did not wear adequate clothing, running the risk of presenting sunburns.…”
