“…Breast cancer is the main type of neoplasm in the Brazilian female population, 1,2 representing a relevant public health problem. 2,3 In 2014, breast cancer was accounted for 2.75% of female deaths, equivalent to 14,622 deaths. 4 For 2016, 57,960 new cases were estimated in Brazil.…”

“…1 For screening, the main method is the mammography examination, the only exam that revealed to be effective for this purpose. 2,6,7 Mammography is a breast x-ray and allows to detect lesions caused by neoplasia. 2 In 2012, the Programa Nacional de Qualidade em Mamografia (National Program on Mammography Quality) was established in Brazil by the Ministry of Health, aimed to ensure the quality of the mammograms examinations offered to the population.…”

“…8 The exams which presented low quality could mask the results, thus leading to an inadequate therapeutic conduct. 2 The Brazilian Ministry of Health adopts mammography as a key exam for screening and controlling breast cancer. The Programa Nacional de Controle do Câncer de Mama (National Breast Cancer Control Program), established by the Instituto Nacional de Câncer (INCA) (National Cancer Institute), works on the perspective to boost a quantitative expansion and promote access of this program in all the regions in the country.…”

“…There are locations that have sufficient number of equipment, but fail in offering them, although providing individuals with better socioeconomic conditions a greater access for screening exams, such as mammography, for example. 2,9 The increase of breast cancer mortality in Brazil occurs due to the delay of the diagnosis at the right time and place. In several locations in the country, especially those that are the most remote and distant from the large urban centers, the lack of equipment result in the long distance displacement to perform the mammography.…”

Objective: to describe the distribution of available mammograms in the Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) (Public Health Care System) and the mammography offering were carried out by this system, throughout the health regions in Pernambuco State, and compared them with the parametric care recommended by the Ministry of Health. Methods: this is a descriptive cross-sectional study that used secondary mammograms data in December 2016 by the Cadastro Nacional de Estabelecimentos de Saúde (National Registy on Health Establishments); and about mammography performed at SUS in 2016 by the Sistema de Informação Ambulatorial (Ambulatory Information System). The parametric care document No. 1.631/2015 was used as a comparability standard in relation to the distribution of the equipment and the mammography offering. Results: Pernambuco State presented approximately the double amount of mammograms and mammography was performed about 46% below the recommended parameter used in this study. All the health regions presented sufficient quantity of mammograms. However, the use of the installed capacity was less than 50% in all the health regions in the state. Conclusions: this study shows the need for a better use of the installed capacity for mammograms in Pernambuco State taken by the insufficient mammography offering and the poor distribution of the equipment in its territory.

The advanced-stage diagnosis of breast cancer reveals the inequalities associated with socioeconomic conditions and the offer of health services. This study analyzes the prevalence of advanced breast cancer and its relationship with individual and contextual socioeconomic indicators and offer of health service. A cross-sectional study is presented herein, on the assessment of malignant breast neoplasms in women diagnosed between 2006 and 2015 (n = 195,201). Data were collected from the Hospital Cancer Registry (HCR), Atlas of Human Development in Brazil, and from the National Registry of Health Institutions (NRHI). A multilevel Poisson Regression was carried out with random intercept. The prevalence of advanced breast cancer diagnosis was 40.0%. Advanced staging was associated with younger age groups (PR 1.41), race/nonwhite (PR 1.13), lower education levels (PR 1.38), and public access to health services (PR 1.25). There was also an association with a low density of mammographic equipment (PR 1.08), and with low indices of local social inequality (PR 1.33) and human development (PR 0.80). This study maps and highlights the causes related to inequalities in the diagnosis of advanced breast cancer in Brazil, and presents essential data to reorient public policies and health-related actions to strengthen the control of breast cancer in Brazil.
