Keratinocytic skin cancer (KSC) is by far the most common type of skin cancer corresponding to 25% of all malignant pathologies diagnosed. KSC and its precursor states are among the most common forms of cancer and their incidence is increasing worldwide.

Equally, it is an underreported pathology as existing practices do not include these types of tumors in statistics and their registration is not mandatory. As a growing health issue, it generates huge costs for both diagnosis and treatment, whilst the recent COVID-19 pandemic revealed what happens to patients who are not diagnosed and treated in time.

With the advent of systemic therapies for advance stages and new adjuvant and neoadjuvant therapies, identifying high risk patients and tumors in their earlier stages, staging and managing tumors correctly from the beginning, and knowing all the possible treatments (medical and surgical) becomes essential for dermatologists in both a hospital and private setting.

Providing a comprehensive overview for delegates, the Focus On Keratinocytic Cancer (KSC) track promises to elaborate on the latest research in this field and equip you to enhance your patient care in your daily practice.
