20 Sunbeds What is the legal minimum age to use commercial sunbeds? (April 2011) No legislation Sunbeds (Regulation) Act 2010

21 When to excise?

22 When NOT to excise? Suspected melanoma Aged 24 years or younger Immunosuppressed Gorlin syndrome(naevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome)

23 When NOT to excise? is a recurrent BCC following incomplete excision is a persistent BCC that has been incompletely excised according to histology is morphoeic, infiltrative or basosquamous in appearance

24 When NOT to excise? Is located: over important underlying anatomical structures (for example, major vessels or nerves) in an area where primary surgical closure may be difficult (for example, digits or front of shin) in an area where difficult excision may lead to a poor cosmetic result at another highly visible anatomical site (for example, anterior chest or shoulders) where a good cosmetic result is important to the patient.

25 When NOT to excise? The lesion: is located below the clavicle (that is, not on the head or neck) is less than 1 cm in diameter with clearly defined margins

26 Who can excise?

27 Who can excise? GPs performing skin surgery on low-risk BCCs should: demonstrate competency in performing local anaesthesia, punch biopsy, shave excision, curettage and elliptical excision using the direct observation of procedural skills (DOPS) assessment tool in the Department Health Guidance for GPwSIs in dermatology and skin surgery and then follow a program of revalidation have specialist training in the recognition and diagnosis of skin lesions appropriate to their role.

28 GPs performing skin surgery on low-risk BCCs should: send all skin specimens removed to histology for analysis provide information about the site of excision and provisional diagnosis on the histology request form maintain a fail-safe log of all their procedures with histological outcome to ensure that patients are informed of the final diagnosis, and whether any further treatment or follow-up is required

29 GPs performing skin surgery on low-risk BCCs should: provide quarterly feedback to their CCG on the histology reported as required by the national skin cancer minimum dataset, including details of all proven BCCs provide details to their CCG of all types of skin cancer removed in their practice as described in the 2006 NICE guidance on skin cancer services and should not knowingly remove skin cancers other than low-risk BCCs

30 GPs performing skin surgery on low-risk BCCs should: provide evidence of an annual review of clinical compared with histological accuracy in diagnosis for the low-risk BCCs they have managed attend, at least annually, an educational meeting (organised by the Skin Cancer Network Site Specific Group), which should: present the 6-monthly BCC network audit results, including a breakdown of individual practitioner performance include one CPD session (a total of 4 hours) on skin lesion recognition and the diagnosis and management of low-risk BCCs be run at least twice a year.

39 NG12 Refer via 2 week cancer pathway: Score of 3 or more on 7 point weighted check list: Major features (2 points each): Change in size Irregular shape Irregular colour Minor features (1 point each) 7+mm diameter (largest) Inflammation Oozing Change in sensation

40 NG12 Refer via 2 week cancer pathway: Dermoscopy suggests melanoma Skin lesion with appearance of nodular melanoma

41 NG12 Refer via 2 week cancer pathway: Suspicion of squamous cell carcinoma

42 NG12 Refer via routine pathway: Suspicion of basal cell carcinoma Refer via 2 week cancer pathway: BCC, if there is particular concern that a delay may have a significant impact, because of factors such as lesion site or size

43 NG12 Follow NICE 2010 on management of low risk BCCs in the community for advice as to who should excise suspected BCCs
