Abstract

This cross-sectional survey identified risk factors for developing a second primary melanoma. Patients with melanoma who had characteristics such as male sex, older age, high naevus count, or melanoma on the trunk or upper limbs had a substantially higher risk of subsequent melanoma and should therefore be more intensively monitored.
