“…Another sample of cases in Brazil found an average age in men of 59.6 years from 2000 to 2009 ( Thuler & Bergmann, 2015 ). The mean age observed in women in this study was similar to what is seen by other authors that used similar data ( Renna Junior & Silva, 2018 ). In the United States, the average age in women observed from 2011 to 2015 was 62 years old ( National Cancer Institute -a ), in Mexico from 2004 to 2006, it was 56 years old ( Mexico.…”

Esse dado corrobora a estimativa oficial de incidência de câncer no Brasil, na qual ressalta-se que os cânceres, inclusive de mama, que possui rastreamento, são diagnosticados em estádio avançado 17 .…”

“…Estudo sobre tendência da mortalidade por câncer nas capitais e interior do Brasil entre 1980 e 2006, mostrou que o aumento da mortalidade por câncer de mama apresentou taxas sempre mais altas nas capitais 11 . Além disso, nascer em uma região diferente daquela da instituição de tratamento está associada a uma chance 12% maior de estar em estágio avançado da doença do que no estágio inicial 12 . Os autores afirmam que o acesso ao diagnóstico de câncer de mama no Brasil é desigual e que fatores socioeconômicos podem influenciar o estágio do diagnóstico.…”
