The collection and processing of information was carried out following the recommendations of the IARC. Rates were calculated by sex, age, and tumor location.Results: The overall incidence of cancer was 3,759 cases; 1,608 in men (AAR= 169.4 cases/100,000 men-year), and 2,151 cases in women (AAR= 176.6 cases/100,000 women-year). The most frequent tumors in men were: prostate (25.9%), stomach (16.5%) and lung (4.8%); and in women: breast (19.7%), thyroid (12.2%) and cervix (10.6%). There were 2,130 cancer deaths, 934 in men (AAR=97.8 deaths/100,000 men-year) and 1,196 deaths in women (AAR=95.1 deaths/100,000 women-year). The main causes of mortality in men were tumors of the stomach (24.8%), prostate (12.8%) and lung (7.5%). In women: breast (12.2%), stomach (11.6%) and cervix (10.0%).Conclusion: The five-year follow-up of cancer burden indicators allows to make comparisons at both national and international levels, in order to provide the basis for planning and evaluating the implementation of public health policies; especially those related to the prevention and care of the most common causes of morbidity and mortality from cancer in Pasto-Colombia. 2022 artículo científico 0120-8322 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=28371551004 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/283/28371551004/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/283/28371551004/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/283/28371551004/28371551004.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/283/28371551004/movil 10.25100/cm.v53i1.4952 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=283 Colombia Médica application/pdf Universidad del Valle Colombia Médica (Colombia) Num.1 Vol.53 |
