Patients were followed up for skin cancer for at least 10\u2009years. Data were extracted from the hospital and community medical records.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 767 patients were included in this study: 509 with psoriasis, 122 with vitiligo, and 136 with mycosis fungoides. The mean follow\u2010up duration was 13\u2009years. Among these patients, 4.43% developed skin cancer during the follow\u2010up (3.93% had psoriasis, 2.46% had vitiligo, and 8.09% had mycosis fungoides). Old age and fair skin type were the only significant independent risk factors for skin cancer. There was no significant difference in the mean number of NB\u2010UVB treatments among patients who developed skin cancer and those who did not (99.09 vs. 94.79, respectively).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>No association was observed between the number of NB\u2010UVB treatments and carcinogenesis in any study group. Age is a significant risk factor, and older patients treated with NB\u2010UVB should be followed up carefully.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/phpp.12936","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,12,8]],"date-time":"2023-12-08T04:25:53Z","timestamp":1702009553000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Frequency of skin cancer among psoriasis, vitiligo, and mycosis fungoides patients treated with narrowband ultraviolet B phototherapy"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"40","author":[{"given":"Ilit","family":"Mimouni","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine Tel Aviv University  Tel Aviv Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Julia","family":"Shulman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clalit Health Services  Tel Aviv Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Awni Abu","family":"Unes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Maccabi Health Services  Tel Aviv Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lev","family":"Pavlovsky","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine Tel Aviv University  Tel Aviv Israel"},{"name":"Department of Dermatology Rabin Medical Center  Petah Tikva Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7684-876X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Felix","family":"Pavlotsky","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine Tel Aviv University  Tel Aviv Israel"},{"name":"Sheba Medical Center Psoriasis and Phototherapy Center  Tel Hashomer Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,12,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_11_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/J.ABD.2021.03.001"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/J.JAAD.2009.12.054"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/J.JAAD.2004.08.047"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/JDV.12619"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/DDG.12537"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/SREP13894"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/ARCHDERM.134.5.595"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067\/MJD.2002.120911"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/J.1468-3083.2006.01557.X"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/J.1468-3083.2006.01635.X"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/J.1600-0781.2007.00314.X"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/00015550410026948"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/J.1365-2133.2005.07085.X"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/J.1365-2133.2007.07980.X"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/J.1365-2133.2005.06537.X"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/BJD.13213"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_18_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/J.1365-2133.2008.08776.X"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_19_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/J.1468-3083.2012.04520.X"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_20_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/JAMADERMATOL.2020.0218"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_21_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/S00403-019-02007-7"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_22_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/J.1365-2133.146.S61.2.X"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_23_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/J.GACETA.2010.07.013"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_24_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.11604\/PAMJ.2013.16.31.2791"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_25_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0168-9525(93)90209-Z"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_26_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/J.1365-2230.2011.04197.X"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_27_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/JDV.12726"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_28_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/J.1365-2133.2009.09252.X"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_29_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/J.DET.2016.11.003"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_30_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/PHPP.12844"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_31_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/09546634.2015.1133882"}],"container-title":["Photodermatology, Photoimmunology &amp;
