Incidência e mortalidade por câncer de tireóide no Brasil

Abstract: Esse estudo visou avaliar a incidência e a mortalidade por câncer de tireóide (CT) no Brasil através análise dos dados de sete Registros de Câncer de Base Populacional e do Sistema de Informação sobre Mortalidade. Taxas de mortalidade qüinqüenais por CT, ajustadas para idade, foram calculadas dentro de um período de 20 anos (1980-1999) para o país como um todo. Calculamos taxas trienais de incidência ajustadas por idade empregando os dados disponíveis desde 1993. As taxas de mortalidade ajustadas por idade dec… Show more

“…As for the size of the rates, a recent study based on PBCR in the cities of Belém, Recife, Goiânia, São Paulo, and Porto Alegre from 1993 to 2001 showed a wide variation in the incidence rates 5 , and the estimates obtained in the current study were consistent with what would be expected for a mean value for Brazil. According to Coeli et al 5 , the possible explanations for the geographic variations in incidence are probably related to the availability of medical care resources in the different regions and to the quality of data in the cancer registries. Thus, it would be interesting to conduct future studies aimed at evaluating the method's adequacy for obtaining estimates in smaller geographic areas such as regions and States of the country.…”

“…The approach presented here 8 is a refinement of the method based on the ratio between incidence and mortality 5 , since it considers the effects of age and birth cohort on the incidence estimation process. Ignoring the effects of age and birth cohort (data not shown), we obtained estimates for thyroid cancer incidence rates of 1.34 for men and 6.3 for women (per 100,000 inhabitants), which were, respectively, 13% and 16% higher than those obtained when polynomial models were used.…”

“…However, thyroid cancer, which was not among the most frequent malignancies, represents today 5% of cases diagnosed in women, with an estimated 11 cases per 100,000 Brazilian women in 2012, the fourth most frequent malignancy 2 . A timely analysis of the incidence and mortality of thyroid cancer in our country showed large regional variation, likely secondary to differences in accessibility to diagnostic methods and coverage of cancer registries, as well as a decrease in mortality in the last two decades of the past century 3 . There is still are discussion whether the increased incidence observed in different parts of the world is real or relative due to diffusion and greater use of diagnostic methods, particularly ultrasound (US) and fine needle aspiration (FNA), as well as increased detection of microcarcinomas in patients operated on for benign diseases 4 .…”

“…Registros, como o programa de vigilância e epidemiologia (Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results -SEER), uma rede de nove registros de câncer de base populacional com área de cobertura de aproximadamente 10% da população norte-americana, têm sido fundamentais para uma série de análises a partir das quais vêm se delineando estratégias diagnósticas, terapêuticas e preventivas em relação ao câncer nos Estados Unidos. (2). Este trabalho insere os dados brasileiros de incidência e de mortalidade na epidemiologia mundial do CT, permitindo comparações com outras nações e sugerindo ações estratégicas para o nosso país, como uma melhor distribuição dos recursos diagnósticos e terapêuticos entre as diversas regiões do Brasil.…”
