چکیده

Segundo estimativas do Instituto Nacional do Câncer (INCA), no Brasil, em 2012, tivemos 52.333 casos novos do câncer de mama. Não existem informações seguras sobre o estadiamento destas pacientes e a taxa bruta de mortalidade pela doença, fazendo com que a reflexão e o planejamento estratégico do rastreamento da doença sejam ações pouco efetivas. Em 2009, a Fundação Oncocentro do Estado de São Paulo (FOSP) reuniu dados obtidos do Registro Hospitalar de Câncer (RHC) de 42 Centros de Alta Complexidade em Oncologia (CACON), no estado de São Paulo. Foram registrados 194.918 casos de câncer de 2000 a 2005, sendo 27.023 de câncer de mama no sexo feminino (27,2%). Informações sobre idade e estadiamento foram obtidas de 26.076 casos. A distribuição dos estádios em relação às faixas etárias está expressa na Tabela 1. Ao analisarmos os dados da Tabela 1, foi possível observar que existe um predomínio do diagnósticos de câncer de mama em estádios avançados no estado de São Paulo. A taxa de diagnóstico da doença nos estádios IIb (que corresponde à mulheres com tumores maiores que 5 cm ou menores mas com axila clinicamente positiva); III (tumores localmente avançados) e IV (doença metastática) alcança 51,2%. Este cenário é altamente discrepante se a casuística de países desenvolvidos for analisada. Segundo dados do Surveillance Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER), do National Cancer Institute nos Estados Unidos, entre 302.763 casos registrados de 1988 a 2001, somente 5,6% deles foram diagnosticados no estádio III, 50,6% como 0 e I e 50,3% com tumores menores que 20 mm (T1). No Reino Unido,
