N2 - Abstract. In an attempt to determine whether exposure to fluorescent lights may cause an increased risk for developing melanoma, 114 patients with melanoma were compared to 228 age‐matched controls. Fluorescent‐light exposure, along with 10 other risk factors, was analyzed for its possible relationship to malignant melanoma. No association was found between fluorescent‐light exposure and increased risk for acquiring malignant melanoma. 1983 American Society for Dermatologic Surgery, Inc.
