Abstract
The development in a rheumatoid patient of a cutaneous malignant melanoma following repeated exposure to UV-A Radiation from a sunbed for its supposed therapeutic effect, is described. A causal-effect relationship is proposed and the potential risks to other arthritic patients and in particular those with pigmented skin lesions, is highlighted.Entities:
