Background: The most important risk factor for basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is UV-radiation. It is reasonable to assume that outdoor workers with a long history of work-related UV-exposure are at increased risk of developing BCC.
Objectives: To systematically analyse the epidemiologic literature concerning the evidence of an association between occupational UV-exposure and BCC risk in outdoor workers.
Methods: Systematic literature review of cohort studies and case-control studies providing data on occupational UV-exposure and BCC occurrence. PubMed (until 28th January 2011) was searched, supplemented by hand searching and consultation of experts in the ...
