Situación actual del cáncer de colon en Chile: una mirada traslacional

Abstract: Seventy-five percent of colorectal cancers are sporadic, 20% have a family component (first or second-degree relatives with CRC) and 5% have a hereditary predisposition with a Mendelian pattern. The epidemiological evolution in the recent years in Chile has a worrisome evolution and the treatment costs of advanced stages are a burden for the healthcare system. We herein highlight the main Chilean medical and scientific contributions on the pathogenesis, early diagnosis, and treatment of CRC, which lead to its … Show more

“…We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of baseline dietary data of all participants enrolled in the Maule cohort (MAUCO), from the agricultural county of Molina in the Maule Region, central Chile ( 39 ). This region is characterized for presenting one of the highest incidence rates for gastric cancer in men and women per 100,000 (regional 46.3 and 17.7 vs. 34.1 and 12.8 nationwide, respectively) ( 40 ), one of the highest mortality rates for colon cancer per 100,000 (regional 8.6 vs. 7.19 nationwide) ( 41 ) and a prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors above national average ( 42 ). MAUCO seeks to analyze the natural history of chronic diseases in Chile.…”

“…El cáncer de colon y recto está categorizado como el tercer tumor maligno más frecuente a nivel mundial con una tasa cruda de incidencia de 24,2 por 100.000 habitantes y con una segunda causa por muerte por neoplasias con una tasa cruda de mortalidad de 11,5 por 100.000 habitantes, siendo en su mayoría hombres los mayormente afectados (Ríos et al, 2020). Las tasas de incidencia y mortalidad varían a nivel mundial, con una incidencia mayor y tasas de mortalidad más bajas en los países de ingresos más altos (Arnold et al, 2017), con una estimación de 53.200 casos mortales en 2020 sólo en Estados Unidos (Sociedad estadounidense del cáncer 2020), mientras que, en Europa y América del norte, el cáncer colorrectal se presenta como uno de los cánceres más comunes (Araghi et al, 2019).…”

“…En Chile, en el año 2012 se registraron 2.417 casos nuevos de cáncer de colon y recto en ambos sexos, incrementando la tasa de mortalidad en este país. Situación que se traduce en el aumento de los costos para el sistema de salud, de igual forma, estos son inferiores a los alcanzados por países desarrollados (Ríos et al, 2020).…”

“…Reliable data on the statistics of CRC in Chile are relatively scarce, and most of the national investigations have focused on mortality rates, all of which have shown an upward trend over the years [ 6 – 8 ]. In fact, the latest publication reports that crude mortality for CRC in Chile for 2016 was 9.18 per 100,000 people, increasing more than 20% between 2000 and 2016 [ 8 ].…”
