Distribution of the lesions’ number according to the gender.

Gender	Lesion
	1 lesion; 𝑁 (%)	2 lesions; 𝑁 (%)	3 lesions; 𝑁 (%)	Total; 𝑁 (%)
Man (𝑛=107)	11 (68.75)	4 (25)	1 (6.25)	16 (14.95)*
Woman (𝑛=219)	12 (66.7)	5 (27.8)	1 (5.55)	18 (8.2)
Total (𝑛=326)	23 (67.6)^#	9 (26.5)^#	2 (5.6)	34 (10.4)

* P = 0.03 (binomial test for comparison between genders; 𝑃<0.05 indicates statistically significant difference). ^#𝑃<0.01 (Cochran test, comparison between 1 lesion versus 2 lesions; 1 lesion versus 3 lesions; 2 lesions versus 3 lesions; 𝑃<0.05 indicates statistically significant difference).
