Resumo: | Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is more prevalent among men over 50 years of age and is associated with tobacco and alcohol use. Many patients with SCC of the oral cavity are diagnosed in late stages of the disease, thus decreasing their survival. The purpose of this study was to analyze the social characteristics of patients with oral SCC in relation to tumor size. Entries in medical records from 2000 to 2003 were reviewed at the Cancer Hospital I of the Brazilian National Cancer Institute. Gender, age, schooling, tobacco and alcohol use, distance from residence to place of treatment, and anatomical site and tumor size were assessed. 1,308 entries were analyzed: 1,029 men (78.7%) and 279 women (21.3%). Larger tumors were associated with lower schooling (p=0.011). No significant association was observed between tumor size and distance from residence to place of treatment (p=0.134). Lower schooling was associated with tumor size, but no relationship was observed for distance to place of treatment. Further research is needed to minimize the limitations of the social indicators selected in this study and to allow a more precise evaluation of the potential associations. |

Muitos pacientes com CEC em mucosa bucal já apresentam lesões avançadas, reduzindo seu prognóstico. O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar as características sociais dos pacientes com CEC bucal, correlacionando-as com o tamanho do tumor. Foi realizado levantamento dos casos de CEC bucal, a partir das informações cadastradas de 2000 a 2003, no Hospital do Câncer I (HC I) do Instituto Nacional de Câncer (INCA). Foram coletados dados referentes a sexo, idade, grau de escolaridade, tabagismo, etilismo, distância entre o bairro de residência e o local de assistência médica e local anatômico e tamanho do tumor no momento da admissão do paciente no INCA. Foram analisados 1.308 prontuários, sendo 1.029 homens (78,7%) e 279 (21,3%) mulheres. Tumores de tamanhos maiores foram relacionados a um menor grau de escolaridade (p=0,011). Por outro lado, a distância entre o bairro de residência e o local de assistência não se mostrou estatisticamente significante em relação ao tamanho do tumor (p=0,134). O baixo grau de escolaridade conferiu-se como risco para o tamanho do tumor, mas tal relação não foi observada em relação à distância entre o bairro de residência e o local de assistência. Novos estudos são necessários para minimizar as falhas referentes às variáveis sociais selecionadas neste estudo de modo a permitir uma avaliação mais precisa em relação à associação avaliada.INCA2008-06-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtigos, Avaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/173910.32635/2176-9745.RBC.2008v54n2.1739Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 54 No. 2 (2008): Apr./May/June; 123-129Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 54 Núm. 2 (2008): abr./mayo/jun.; 123-129Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; v. 54 n. 2 (2008): abr./maio/jun.; 123-1292176-9745reponame: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/1739/1029Noce, Cesar Werneck Rebelo, Marise Souto info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2021-11-29T20:23:39Zoai:rbc.inca.gov.br:article/1739Revistahttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revistaPUBhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/oairbc@inca.gov.br0034-71162176-9745opendoar:2021-11-29T20:23:39Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online) - Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)false |
