Hello Yudelis
Are you asking this question as part of homework or a research paper? If so we can't do your homework for you but we can give you some resources to search for your own information.
Skin cancer can affect any part of the body where you have skin. Common areas of the skin affected by skin cancer are areas which have been overexposed to the sun. In some cases, especially with melanoma skin cancer, there is a possibility that the skin cancer can spread to vital organs.
You can find out more about skin cancer by reading the many articles we have on this site. Other skin cancer resources include the American Cancer Society and The Skin Cancer Foundation.
I hope you find what you are looking for. Thank you for your question.
