Abstract
Incidence rates for melanoma have been increasing rapidly for several decades in white populations.1 A population-based study from the California Cancer Registry recently reported that rates of invasive melanoma have also increased markedly among Hispanics since 1988.2 In general, there is a paucity of literature pertaining to the incidence of melanoma in minority populations.3,4Keywords
