Main description:

The clinical appearance of skin cancer manifests itself in different ways, sometimes making it difficult for clinicians to make an accurate diagnosis.

Beginning with an introduction to skin cancer, each of the following chapters examines different types of tumour including those from keratinocytes and melanocytes, and appendageal, soft tissue, vascular and metastatic skin tumours.
