Which skin cancers are least likely to metastasize?

  1. Melanoma

  2. Basal cell and squamous cell

  3. Lung cancer

  4. Leukemia

The correct answer is: Basal cell and squamous cell

Basal cell and squamous cell skin cancers are considered non-melanoma skin cancers and are generally less likely to metastasize compared to melanoma skin cancer. Melanoma is the most aggressive type of skin cancer and has a higher tendency to metastasize to other parts of the body. Lung cancer and leukemia are not skin cancers, and they are known to have a higher likelihood of metastasis compared to non-melanoma skin cancers.
