Zusammenfassung

Melanom ist der gefährlichste Hautkrebs, der schon bei jungen Menschen auftreten kann und seit Jahrzehnten steigende Inzidenz verzeichnet (Jemal et al. 2007; Little et al. 2012). Jährlich erkranken weltweit etwa 137.000 Menschen am Melanom und 37.000 versterben an der Erkrankung (Boyle et al. 2004). Die Inzidenz liegt weltweit jährlich bei 2,3–2,6/100.000 Einwohner (Pisani et al. 2002). In Deutschland beträgt die Inzidenz 19,2/100.000 Einwohner und es verstarben 2711 Betroffene im Jahre 2010 (Statistisches Bundesamt).
