Cancer of the skin, in general, is believed to be rather uncommon in black persons. Collected reports from the US showed that, out of 357 skin cancer cases, 5 (1.4%) were expressly stated to be albinos. A Nigerian comparable series of 435 patients manifested 15 (3.4%) albinos. Therefore, it is hypothesized that albinism is a good model for studies on skin adaptation as it concerns albinos in USA and in an indigenous people of Nigeria and elsewhere.
