[Recognition of malignant skin tumors of the head and neck].
Skin cancer is the most common malignancy in man. The sun-exposed surfaces of the head and neck are the areas most frequently involved. Since skin cancers in most instances are easily recognized, they may be diagnosed at an early stage. The dentist may play a role in the early detection of skin cancers of the head and neck.
