- Abstract
Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) of the skin is a multifactorial disease with a complex interplay of genetic, environmental and lifestyle factors, including patterns of solar exposure, with childhood exposure being of particular relevance. Case-control studies in disease-discordant twin pairs adjust for familial factors and improve the power of conventional case-control studies.
