“…However, globally, less than 25% of cancer patients receive safe, accessible or timely surgery ( 20 ) . In this sense, in Brazil, only 9% of the total resources allocated to oncology are assigned to cancer surgery ( 22 ) .…”

Objetivo analisar a tendência temporal das internações cirúrgicas pelo Sistema Único de Saúde segundo a permanência hospitalar, os custos e a mortalidade por subgrupos de procedimentos cirúrgicos no Brasil. Método estudo ecológico de séries temporais. As variáveis internações cirúrgicas, permanência, custo e mortalidade foram obtidas do Departamento de Informática do Sistema Único de Saúde. A análise de tendência temporal utilizou o modelo de regressão polinomial. Resultados em nove anos, 37.565.785 internações cirúrgicas foram registradas. A tendência temporal das internações cirúrgicas foi constante (p=0,449); a média de permanência (3,8 dias) foi decrescente e significativa (p<0,01); o custo médio (389,16 dólares) e mortalidade (1,63%) foram crescentes e significativos (p<0,01). Nos subgrupos de procedimentos cirúrgicos do aparelho da visão, torácica, cirurgia oncológica e outras cirurgias, a evolução temporal das cirurgias foi crescente e significativa (p<0,05). Em contraste, as cirurgias de glândulas endócrinas, aparelho digestivo, geniturinário, mama, reparadora e bucomaxilofacial apresentaram tendência significativa de declínio (p<0,05). Nos demais subgrupos, a tendência foi constante. Conclusão as evidências geradas retratam a tendência das internações cirúrgicas na última década no país e fornecem subsídios para a elaboração eficiente de políticas públicas, planejamento e gestão na direção da cobertura universal em assistência cirúrgica.

The main subject of the current study is to look into the limitations found in individuals diagnosed with cancer, considered a public health problem, especially in developing countries where the impact of this disease is expected to account for 80% of 20 million new cases estimated worldwide by 2025. For some patients undergoing treatment, continuing to be professionally active is challenging especially considering that work fosters a purpose in life, a sense of contribution, distraction, and self-esteem, which aids in physical, cognitive, emotional, and interpersonal recovery.Within this context, the aim is to describe the limitations found in individuals with cancer, who have maintained their work activities in private service during radiotherapy treatment, through a descriptive study and a quantitative approach. The final sample of 51 participants was defined by non-probability convenience sampling, based on information from all patients admitted in that period, with a research protocol approved by the Research Ethics Committee.The assessment using the Brazilian version of the Work Role Functioning Questionnaire showed higher average work functioning indexes for social demand, with an average score of 94.33 (11.47). In turn, the worst indexes were registered in physical demand. No significant differences were observed between groups of treatment protocols in terms of WRFQ-Br scores. The work functioning assessment of workers diagnosed with cancer in radiotherapy using the WRFQ-Br showed higher scores for social demands and lower for physical demands. The preserved social performance may be linked to individual work functioning within the family, at work and, consequently, within society, given that the study included patients who maintained their work activities during the proposed treatment period, highlighting the social role of work for patients with cancer.

“…Surgery is essential for the care of patients with cancer, fulfilling roles in prevention, diagnosis and curative treatment. It is also a measure to support palliative treatment and reconstructions (SILVA, 2016). In relation to curative treatment, the best results are achieved when the reduction of tumor burden is achieved through surgery, complemented by chemotherapy and radiotherapy.…”

Purpose: to identify the factors associated with the onset of complications at the surgical site of oncological patients. Method: case-control study, carried out in a medium-sized tertiary hospital, from January to October 2018. The sample was composed of 124 oncological patients who underwent surgery on the pelvis and abdomen. Data were obtained by consulting the medical records. The binary logistic regression model was used for statistical analysis with a significance level of 5%. Results: The independent variables that presented a greater chance of complications in the surgical wound site were: polypharmacy, antibiotic, anticoagulant, antipsychotic, being underweight, low serum albumin and hemoglobin, and surgical wound in the abdomen. Hysterectomy was associated with a lower chance of the occurrence of a complex surgical wound. Conclusion: after controlling the confounding variables, polypharmacy, use of antibiotics and being underweight remained significantly associated with a higher chance of complications in the surgical site.
