Resumo: The number of cancer cases has been increasing all over the world, mainly since the last century, to the point where nowadays it is one of the most serious public health problems worldwide. The frequency of distribution of the various types of cancer varies according to the specific characteristics of each region, which implies a need to study how geographic variations impact on this disease aiming an adequate monitoring and control. This work is a review of the most recent specialized literature, describingsome of the main types of cancer in Brazil have been described, focusing on epidemiologic research which has studied the risk factors associated with these cancers in our country. In this way, the authors aimed to contribute to an evaluation of the present risk of cancer in Brazil, analyzing the tendencies of its incidence, that could help to develop adequate public health policies to control this disease in our country.

A freqüência de distribuição dos diferentes tipos de câncer apresenta-se variável em função das características de cada região, o que enfatiza a necessidade do estudo das variações geográficas nos padrões desta doença, para seu adequado monitoramento e controle. Por meio de revisão da literatura especializada mais recente, foram descritos alguns dos principais tipos de câncer no Brasil, com enfoque nas pesquisas epidemiológicas que investigaram os fatores associados ao risco de adoecer por estes cânceres em nosso país. Desta forma, os autores deste estudo objetivaram contribuir para a avaliação do risco atual de câncer no Brasil, buscando uma análise das tendências em sua incidência, estratégia de fundamental valor para o desenvolvimento de políticas de saúde adequadas que visem ao controle desta doença em nosso país.INCA2005-09-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionRevisão de literaturaapplication/pdfhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/195010.32635/2176-9745.RBC.2005v51n3.1950Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 51 No. 3 (2005): July/Aug./Sept.; 227-234Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 51 Núm. 3 (2005): jul./ago./sept.; 227-234Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; v. 51 n. 3 (2005): jul./ago./set.; 227-2342176-9745reponame:Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online)instname:Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)instacron:INCAporhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/1950/1184Guerra, Maximiliano RibeiroGallo, Cláudia Vitória de MouraMendonça, Gulnar Azevedo e Silvainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2021-11-29T20:29:53Zoai:rbc.inca.gov.br:article/1950Revistahttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revistaPUBhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/oairbc@inca.gov.br0034-71162176-9745opendoar:2021-11-29T20:29:53Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online) - Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)false
