Abstract		The skin is the organ most commonly affected by malignancies. The most frequent among nonmelanoma skin cancers are basal cell and squamous cell carcinomas, which show a broad variety of clinical and histopathological manifestations. Nonmelanoma skin cancers are usually of low malignancy and have a favorable prognosis. The golden standard in therapy are surgical excision and radiotherapy. Due to the low malignant potential and early diagnosis and accessibility, certain types of skin cancers are amenable to many other simpler therapeutic procedures, which provide better esthetic and comparable therapeutic effects and are usually also less costly.
Summary		Na koži lahko vznikne veliko število nemelanomskih karcinomov, vendar so daleč najpogosteši epitelijski karcinomi dveh tipov - bazalnocelični in skvamoznocelični, ki se kažejo z zelo raznolikimi histološkimi in kliničnimi slikami. Kožni nemelanomski karcinomi so običajno nizko maligni z dobro napovedjo. Klasični metodi zdravljenja sta kirurška ekscizija in radioterapija. Nizka malignost kožnih karcinomov, zgodnja diagnoza, pa tudi lahka dostopnost za različne oblike zdravljenja in poterapevtsko kontrolo omogočajo pri določenih vrstah in oblikah karcinomov uporabo drugačnih metod zdravljenja. Njihove prednosti so v dobrih estetskih in primerljivih terapevtskih rezultatih ter preprostih tehnikah, ki omogočajo hitre ambulantne posege z redkimi kontraindikacijami in stranskimi učinki, z majhnim tveganjem zapletov ob sprejemljivo nizki ceni.
