Abstract Cancer currently represents a public health problem with a growing incidence in Brazil, as well as in the world. Objective: to analyze the quality of cancer care based on the vision of SUS users who have already received some kind of assistance. Topics on aging, oncology, legislation and control actions were reviewed. Methodology: This is a field research, with a quantitative, descriptive and exploratory approach, data collection was performed through the application of a form. The participants of this research were cancer patients, over 18 years old, treated by the SUS and Cabo Frio residents, the research scenario was a UNACON, located in the municipality already mentioned. Results: In the face of the results obtained, this research identified some gaps in the assistance from the system users' reports. The results were presented in five topics that comprise the dimensions covered by the PNPCC: Health Promotion, Prevention, Early Diagnosis, Timely Treatment and Hospice Care. Conclusion: It can be seen that, just as in the country, the municipality can not meet the needs of all clients in an equitable and timely manner. Due to the progressive increase of those affected by the disease, the tertiary care structures should grow similarly so that they could guarantee the population's rights, full care and due therapeutic offer, as recommended by the cancer policy.
