Abstract
Objective: To analyze the temporal trend in prostate cancer mortality rates in Brazil and its geographic regions between the years 2000 and 2020. Methods: The numbers of deaths due to malignant prostate neoplasms (ICD-10: C61) made available were analyzed on the official portal of the Brazilian Ministry of Health, in addition to data on the resident population. The temporal and geographic pattern was analyzed using the age-standardized mortality rate and evaluated in a regression model using inflection points. Results: In Brazil, the mortality rate analyzed remained stable (AAPC: 0.1; IC95: -0.5-0.7). The study of Brazilian regions showed average growth in the index in the Northeast (AAPC: 3.7; IC95: 3.1-4.2) and North (AAPC: 2.1; IC95: 1.1-3.1) regions, as opposed to the decrease observed in the South (AAPC: -1.4; IC95: -2.5--0.2), Southeast (AAPC: -1.3; IC95: -2.2--0.4) and Central-West (AAPC: -0.8; IC95: -1.3--0.2). Conclusion: Prostate cancer mortality in Brazil remained constant between 2000 and 2020, in contrast to evidence of growth in the Northeast and North, and a decrease in the South, Southeast and Central-West. These regional variations reflect the importance of health strategies adapted to the specific needs of each geographic area.
