Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue delves into the multifaceted landscape of skin oncology, encompassing a comprehensive exploration from risk factors to treatment and prognosis. As the incidence of skin cancer continues to rise, there is an urgent need for innovative approaches in managing its various types, particularly melanoma, cutaneous lymphomas, and keratinocyte carcinomas.

The Special Issue aims to unravel the intricate web of risk factors contributing to the development of skin cancer, shedding light on environmental, genetic, and lifestyle elements that play pivotal roles. Insights into the increasing incidence of skin cancer underscore the urgency for heightened awareness and effective preventive measures. From diagnostic challenges to evolving treatment paradigms, we aim to provide a comprehensive overview, highlighting the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration for optimal patient care.

In conclusion, this Special Issue on skin oncology serves as a valuable resource for researchers. By exploring the entire spectrum from risk factors to treatment and prognosis, it contributes to the ongoing dialogue surrounding the pressing challenges in skin cancer management, fostering a collaborative effort to improve outcomes for affected individuals.
