ABSTRACT

El melanoma maligno ha aumentado su incidencia. En la provincia de Osorno, para el período 2016 ­ 2018, se registraron 55 casos nuevos de melanoma, con predominio en sexo femenino. Los subtipos extensivo superficial y nodular fueron los más frecuentes; no obstante el lentiginoso acral fue un grupo prevalente, siendo el sexo masculino el más afectado por esta variedad. Un 49,1% de los melanomas fueron detectados con Breslow mayor a 1 mm, siendo los hombres los más afectados por una pesquisa más tardía. Reforzar la cobertura de la atención primaria urbana y rural, como así la oferta de dermatólogos, impactarán en la mejora de estos índices.
