BACKGROUND: Despite its increased incidence and status as the most prevalent @entity5 in Canada, there is a paucity of epidemiological data on @entity1489 ( @entity1489 ). OBJECTIVE: To assess @entity189 (KC) in Canada over 5 decades. METHODS: Articles published from 1960 to 2015 on @entity1489 in Canada were identified through MEDLINE. Six articles met our search criteria. RESULTS: Overall, KC has increased. However, the rate of increase in the past decade has slowed down and decreased in younger age cohorts. @entity1 had higher incidences of KC. In both sexes, the @entity1491 and @entity957 ratio was >= 2.5:1. Keratinocyte @entity189 were most commonly located on the head and neck, and increasing rates are occurring on the trunk. LIMITATIONS: The methods of registering @entity1489 cases vary among different provinces. CONCLUSION: Keratinocyte @entity189 incidence is overall increasing; however, there may be evidence that the incidence is leveling off and decreasing in younger age cohorts.
