“… 28 reported the incidence rate of 1.50/1 million for MF/SS in 1980–1984 and 1.80/1 million persons in 2000–2003 in Norway. In Germany, from 1976–1989 the incidence was 2.00–2.50/1 million persons among men and 1.50–0.80/1 million among women (overall 3.50 and 3.30, respectively) 28,29 . One of the reasons for this, as Weinstock demonstrated before, could be variations in concentration of physicians.…”

Mycosis fungoides (MF) is an extranodal non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with primary involvement of the skin. The aim of the present study was to determine the incidence rate of MF in Isfahan (Iran) and to compare the results with other reports. We collected our data from the MF clinic of Alzahra Hospital which is the main center for treatment of MF patients in Isfahan (2007-2008). Eleven cases were reported to the MF clinic of Alzahra during the study, seven of which were diagnosed as MF. The incidence rate of MF in Isfahan in 2007-2008 was 3.91/1 million persons. The age spectrum was 28-80 years and the mean 43.14 years. The male : female ratio was 3:4. In conclusion, the incidence rate of MF in Isfahan (Iran) is similar to other areas. However, the male : female ratio is opposite to that of other studies.

“…Men have higher rates than women for most lymphoid neoplasm subtypes 26 . In almost all of the studies on CTCL, men had significantly higher rates compared with women and the male : female ratio was 1.30–4.00 7,27–29,31,34 . In a study in Mashhad (Iran), the male : female ratio was 1.00 32 .…”

SummaryEpidemiological data are of great importance for the identification of health care needs, the detection of gaps in care, the development of targeted prevention measures, and for the optimization of resource allocation. The aim of this work was to systematically collect all previously published population‐based epidemiological data on skin diseases in Germany. The present part 1 of the publication series deals with tumor diseases of the skin. The results on non‐infectious (part 2) and infectious skin diseases (part 3) form the other parts of this publication series.A systematic search of the literature spanning the last 15 years was conducted using the PubMed/MEDLINE database. With the aim of including all dermatologic diseases, a diagnostic list was developed based on the ICD‐11 catalogue. This list included 1,347 skin diseases and formed the basis for the search. The literature search yielded 4,650 publications. After two‐stage screening, 72 studies on 43 different skin diseases were included in the synthesis. Among them were 30 publications on cutaneous tumor diseases, the majority was related to malignant melanoma.This work is the first systematic literature review that aimed to report all available epidemiological data on skin diseases in Germany. In terms of study characteristics, a high heterogeneity was found for the different skin diseases. Even though the methodology of the included epidemiological studies varied considerably, the usefulness of these epidemiological data is extremely wide‐ranging. Thus, this work can serve as a reference for various epidemiological questions.
