New Concepts and Recent Advances in the Management of Skin Cancer

Dear Colleagues,

Skin cancer is the most common human cancer and its incidence is continuosly increasing. The recent discovery of new signaling pathways related with melanoma and keratynocitic carcinomas has transformed the therapeutic landscape of this cutaneous tumors. New diagnostic tools have also been developed, leading to an earlier diagnosis and optimizing the clinical management of these tumours. However, there are still many uncertainties in the field of cutaneous oncology in need of covering for a better understanting and handling of the disease.

In this Special Issue, papers on  epidemiology, etiopathogenic mechanisms, clinical management and surgical/medical therapy in skin cancer are highly welcome.

Researchers are encouraged to submit their findings as either original articles, reviews, or brief communications.
