We calculated the short-term and long-term risks of developing cancer among 3,766 patients with a diagnosis of cutaneous melanoma in situ in Sweden from 1958 to 1992. In total, 393 patients developed a primary cancer at any site compared with an expected number of 177 [standardized incidence ratio (
melanoma (OM) is the most common primary intraocular malignancy, with an annual incidence of 6 per million in the United Kingdom and in many other countries. 1 Environmental factors known to increase the risk of cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM), such as UV radiation, appear to be less important in
