Resumo: Introduction: Cutaneous melanoma accounts for 4% of skin cancers, and it’s the cause of 80% of deaths from skin cancer. Its incidence and prevalence in Western Santa Catarina are higher than national averages. Objective: To identify the clinical-epidemiological differences between male and female patients diagnosed with cutaneous melanoma in Western Santa Catarina/Brazil. Method: Patients from the West region of Santa Catarina were evaluated between January, 2010 and December, 2013. To collect the data, a protocol adapted from the online system of Brazilian Melanoma Group (Grupo Brasileiro de Melanoma) was used. Results: The data were collected from 253 patients with cutaneous melanoma, among which 62.45% were women. The most prevalent histological type in both genders was superficial spreading. In the female gender there was a higher number of in situ cancers (22.2%); and fewer cases with primary cutaneous ulceration (22.8%) (p=0.02); in addition to lower depth of invasion (44.8%) (p=0.01). Conclusion: In Western Santa Catarina, female patients with cutaneous melanoma have characteristics of primary lesions that result in better prognosis compared to male patients.

Su incidencia y prevalencia en la región Oeste de Santa Catarina es mayor que en las otras regiones del país. Objetivo: Identificar las diferencias clínica y epidemiológicas entre pacientes masculinos y femeninos con diagnóstico de melanoma cutáneo en el oeste de Santa Catarina. Método: Fueron evaluados pacientes procedentes de la región Oeste de Santa Catarina, en el período de enero/2010 a diciembre/2013. Para la colecta de datos fue utilizado un protocolo adaptado del sistema on-line del Grupo Brasileño de Melanoma. Resultados: Fueron obtenidos datos de 253 pacientes con melanoma cutáneo, entre los cuales las mujeres representaron el 62,45%. El tipo histológico prevalente en ambos sexos fue el extensivo superficial. En el sexo femenino se verificó un mayor número de neoplasias in situ (22,2%); y un menor número de lesiones cutáneas primarias con ulceración (22,8%) (p=0,02); además de una menor profundidad de invasión (44,8%) (p=0,01).
