ABSTRACT
Introduction: prostate cancer has high mortality rate, ranking second in Cuba, surpassed only by tumors of the larynx, trachea and lungs, a similar prevalence is observed in Holguin province.Objective: to analyze mortality from prostate cancer in the province of Holguin and the factors that can influence in decreasing this mortality.
Method: statistics rate of mortality for prostate cancer from 2001 to 2013 was considered, as well as its incidence taking into account the clinical stage. Statistical Yearbook of Cuba and the data of the Department of Medical Records and Health Statistics in the province (2013) were used. The statistics from 2001 to 2013, mortality from prostate cancer incidence and clinical stage in patients in the province of Holguin were considered. The variables: mortality rate per 100 000 population, incidence, clinical stage according to mortality in patients diagnosed with prostate cancer (2007-2013) in the municipalities, years of potential life lost (YPLL) by age group and mortality trends were analyzed.
Results: the mortality rate in 2013 was 42.8 per 100,000 inhabitants in the province, surpassed only by lung tumors (49.8 per 100,000 inhabitants). The incidence in advanced stages III prevailed in recent years. Gibara, Cueto, Sagua, Frank País and Urbano Noris municipalities had high mortality rates and Moa, Banes, Antilla had lower average rate over the past five years. YPLL in groups of 60-64 years had the higher rate of 6.7 in 2007 being displaced by the 65-69 age group in 2013 with a rate of 6.4.
Conclusions: there is a clear trend towards increased mortality from prostate cancer in Holguin.
